RALEIGH – Today, the N.C. Division of Waste Management announced plans to use emergency funds to supply two homes with clean drinking water supplies in an east Raleigh neighborhood where pesticide contamination has been found in drinking water wells. Also, officials with the N.C. Division of Water Quality have been going door-to-door and sending letters to residents of the unincorporated neighborhood near Bond Street and Trawick Road to request that residents with wells near the known contamination allow the state agency to sample their household wells.
RALEIGH – Air quality permits for more than 2,650 facilities across North Carolina are now available for public viewing on the N.C. Division of Air Quality’s website. The division has posted copies of air permits for about 300 major sources (Title V) on its website for some time, but citizens needed to visit the division’s offices to view permits for most smaller facilities.
