The N.C. Department of Environmental Quality’s Division of Air Quality (DAQ) is accepting public comment on an administrative amendment to the air permit for the Chemours Company Fayetteville Works facility.

The draft permit includes changes related to the applicability of the federal Major Source Boiler Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rule.  One existing boiler is being reclassified as a ‘unit designed to burn gas 1 fuel' instead of a ‘unit designed to burn light liquid fuel’. 

The permit changes do not impact the sections of the permit dealing with the thermal oxidizer or PFAS emissions.

Interested parties may submit written comments until May 18 by email to DAQ.publiccomments@ncdenr.gov.  Please include “Chemours.19A” in the subject line.

Written comments can also be sent by mail to:

NC DEQ Division of Air Quality, Attn: Permitting
1641 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1641
