North Carolina just won a historic $590 million settlement from DuPont and Chemours over decades of PFAS pollution from their Fayetteville Works facility — the largest environmental damage recovery in state history. Combined with a prior $1.2 billion agreement, this brings total accountability to nearly $2 billion. The new deal ensures clean drinking water and environmental remediation for southeastern North Carolina, building on Chemours’ prior efforts that already upgraded systems for 10,500 homes. State officials blame the EPA for weak enforcement, calling past actions a “slap on the wrist,” and credit North Carolina’s aggressive legal strategy. $455 million will flow directly to impacted local governments, while the state uses the funds to strengthen environmental oversight and enforce accountability — with officials stressing the fight isn’t over until every North Carolinian can trust their tap water.
