It apparently has not been analyzed by the EPA and its safety is questioned, thanks From: Rozsa, Gabe Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2017 10:35 PM To: Jackson, Ryan; Black, Charlie Cc: Stuaan, Abbi Subject: RE: New Hanover County Water Issue Ryan, Thank you for the quick response. I think it is the Chemours facility near Fayetteville, NC and the chemical is used in making Teflon. The chemical has been found downstream from the plant and is affecting the drinking water of the local communities including Wilmington. Let me know if you need more info. I am also reaching out to Greg Peck in the Water Office whom I have known for a couple of decades but this likely affects more than just the Water office.
