NC Officials Reject Weak Chemours Deal | Wilmington News
Description
North Carolina’s top officials are fiercely opposing a proposed EPA settlement with Chemours, calling it inadequate and unfair—especially since it offers no real drinking water protections for the state’s residents who rely on the contaminated Cape Fear River. Governor Stein, Attorney General Jackson, and DEQ Secretary Wilson argue the deal lets Chemours off too easily, fails to hold the company accountable for decades of PFAS pollution, and risks diverting cleanup funds away from North Carolina. With PFAS linked to cancer and liver damage, the state is demanding a new agreement that prioritizes public health and ensures Chemours pays for real, measurable cleanup in the state.
