FACILITY DESCRIPTION The Chemours Company - Fayetteville Works consists of approximately 2200 acres located on the Bladen - Cumberland county line, adjacent to N.C. highway 87, approximately 15 miles southeast of Fayetteville, N.C. Approximately 400 acres are currently used for Chemours Company - Fayetteville Works manufacturing and two tennant manufacturing operations. A solar energy facility is being constructed on approximately 400 acres that will be unmanned when construction is completed. The remainder of the property is set -aside for future manufacturing needs. The SO3 process at Fayetteville is a Prevention Program 3 processes due to regulated toxic chemicals with off -site impact potential. The SO3 process produces chemical intermediates using Sulfur Trioxide. The TFE process is a Prevention Program 1 processes since the regulated chemical is flammable with no off -site impact. TFE is used to produce a polymer for membranes used in fuel cells and the Chloralkali industry. In the production of those products, the regulated substance Tetrafluoroethylene is used. ACCIDENT RELEASE PREVENTION PROGRAM The Chemours Company - Fayetteville Works is in compliance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.119 and 40CFR Part 68. Our Process Safety Management system includes a documented process technology system detailing the hazards of the materials, equipment design basis and the process design basis. Periodic Process Hazards Analyses are conducted to review the entire process to ensure safe operation and compliance with design guidelines. Materials of construction are strictly controlled to ensure the mechanical integrity of the systems. Extensive operating and safety instrumentation include alarms, interlocks and gas detectors that allow the operators to continuously monitor and control the process conditions. Process safety critical equipment and instruments are identified and routinely tested or inspected to ensure proper operation and mechanical integrity. A work order and permit system is used to control maintenance work. Maintenance and operations personnel are trained and qualified via a rigorous training program. Operating and maintenance procedures are documented and available to personnel either via hard copy or electronic copies on computers located throughout the operating areas. FIVE YEAR ACCIDENT HISTORY There have been no on site injuries and no off site injuries, evacuations, sheltering in place, property damage or environmental damage due the accidental release of RMP regulated substances from the Chemours Company - Fayetteville Works in the past 5 years.

Our emergency response program provides planning and training to effectively protect our employees, the public and the environment during emergency situations. The emergency response procedures are in place and updated periodically. All employees are trained for their role in an emergency situation. The plant conducts emergency response drills, with critiques held after the drills and actual events. The plant is actively involved with the Bladen County LEPC. IMPROVING SAFETY We constantly strive to evaluate and improve the safety of our processes. Every person on the site is engaged and has a responsibility to improve the safety of our operations. As part of our Process Hazards Analysis process, teams consisting of operators, mechanics, technical engineers and management thoroughly examine and evaluate our manufacturing operations on a periodic frequency to identify risk reduction opportunities. Audits, both first party and second party, are conducted using site based personnel and non -site personnel to evaluate compliance with safety, environmental, occupational health and process safety management requirements and regulations. Findings are documented and tracked to closure. DEQ-CFW 00065766
