Marla,

Sorry - that's NDPES, not NCPES.

Hope this finds you well, my name is Ben Schachtman, I'm a reporter and assistant editor for Port City Daily
here in Wilmington, NC.
I have a few questions about the ongoing issues with Chemours and GenX. If I'm directing these to the wrong
person, please accept my apology. Perhaps you can point me in the right direction.
The first, is about the permit number for Chemours GenX manufacturing. The water authority in our area, the
CFPUA, filed a FOIA yesterday for this permit: NC0003573. However, when I looked it up, it appeared to be
Kuraray, not Chemours.
So, a few questions:
1) What's the NCPES permit # for Chemours?
2) In their meeting with local authorities, Chemours claimed a'seperate operation' was responsible for GenX -
as by-product of a vinyl manufacturing process. This process has allegedly gone on since the 1980s. Dupont,
Chemours and Kuraray all have facilities in Fayetteville, which one is making the vinyl - and the GenX
byproduct?
3) Is Kuraray's operation receiving similar scrutiny as Chemours?
Thank you so much,
