A day after the state announced plans to revoke Chemours' permit to discharge process wastewater from its Fayetteville Works plant, the company says it disagrees with the move.

The state has cited Chemours for failing to report an October 6 spill at its Fayetteville Works facility.

An unreported spill at Chemours led to levels of GenX peaking at 3,700 parts per trillion, a far cry from the 140 parts per trillion established health standard.

State officials have ordered Chemours to provide bottled water to 15 more well owners near the company’s Fayetteville facility.

State orders Chemours to provide bottled water to nine more families after preliminary tests showed GenX levels above provisional guidelines.

The state has selected who will chair the newly expanded state science panel that will examine a broad scope of potential impacts to  health and the environment from new or emerging chemicals.

It will take some more time before drivers in Brunswick County might save time and money on their vehicle inspections.

A public hearing is planned for New Hanover County to discuss proposed changes to two sets of rules that protect water quality.

The state has directed Chemours to provide bottled water to eight more well owners near the company’s Fayetteville Works facility after new preliminary test results show GenX above the state health goal in residential drinking wells.
