The EPA signed an enforceable agreement with Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (Duke) to perform a comprehensive assessment, determine the location of coal ash deposits and to remove deposits along the Dan River as deemed appropriate by EPA in consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a result of the coal ash spill that occurred at the Dan River Steam Station on February 2, 2014.
Under the Administrative Order and Agreement on Consent (Order), entered into under the Superfund law, EPA will oversee the cleanup and Duke will reimburse EPA for its oversight costs.
