Brunswick县，北卡莱罗纳【nà】州，对杜邦和科【kē】慕公司采【cǎi】取了第一【yī】步重要的措施以【yǐ】解决菲尔河【hé】的污染问题【tí】。Baron & Budd国家律师【shī】事务所已经就【jiù】此事件提【tí】起诉【sù】送。该事务所【suǒ】正代表该县采取法【fǎ】律措施核【hé】算调查和管理成【chéng】本，包【bāo】括减【jiǎn】少【shǎo】和去除这些化学物质的成本。
通过【guò】最初的调查，Brunswick县已【yǐ】经掌握了杜邦和科慕【mù】公【gōng】司在费【fèi】耶【yē】特维尔的公司自1980年以来，不【bú】但【dàn】生产危【wēi】险化学品全【quán】氟碳化合【hé】物（PFCs)，而且这些年来未进行信【xìn】息披【pī】露的【de】情况【kuàng】下，向菲尔河排放这些PFCs物质【zhì】。这【zhè】两家公司直到2017年9月仍然持【chí】续向菲尔河排放PFCs。

北卡莱罗纳州威明顿市有60000多居民的饮用水取自菲尔河。

杜邦及其衍生公司科慕公司的一个生产工厂在这个城市的上游。

这个【gè】工厂坐落于菲尔河的旁2000亩【mǔ】的土地上【shàng】，正是在【zài】这个工厂生产这种称【chēng】为 GenX，生产过程中副产的【de】可能会引进癌【ái】症的化合物【wù】。

威明顿市居民要求知情这些有毒化合物是否进入城市引用水。

该公司与菲尔河【hé】公众事业机构【gòu】共【gòng】同进行了一项针对河水中化【huà】合物的三年的研究【jiū】。但【dàn】是，正【zhèng】如【rú】哥伦【lún】比亚新闻公司Jericka Duncan报道，这项研究的【de】结果从未让【ràng】大众知晓，甚至【zhì】是威明顿市市长【zhǎng】 Bill Saffo。

关于杜邦：

杜邦光伏解决【jué】方案是全球领先的光伏材料供应商。自1975年【nián】，在全【quán】球已【yǐ】安【ān】装的4亿【yì】个光伏组件中，超过半数皆采用杜邦材料。

以下为原文报道（by  Fluorochem）：

Brunswick County, North Carolina, took the first important step of addressing the long-term contamination of the Cape Fear River by DuPont and Chemours. The national law firm of Baron & Budd announced today that it has filed suit on behalf of Brunswick County in the United States Eastern District of North Carolina against Chemours and DuPont for their role in contaminating the Cape Fear River. The firm is pursuing legal action on the County’s behalf to recover costs required to investigate, manage, reduce and remove chemicals from drinking water drawn from the Cape Fear River.

Through initial investigations, Brunswick County has obtained evidence that Chemours and DuPont not only manufactured dangerous perfluorinated chemicals (“PFCs”) at the Fayetteville Works plant in Fayetteville, North Carolina since 1980, but also released PFC chemicals into the Cape Fear River over the span of many years without disclosure. The companies have continued to deposit PFCs into the river as recently as September 2017.

Some 60,000 Wilmington, N.C., residents get their drinking water from the Cape Fear River.

DuPont and its spinoff company Chemours manufacture chemicals at a plant upstream from the city.

The plant is situated on a 2,100-acre property on the Cape Fear River in Fayetteville. It is there where a chemical called GenX -- a potentially cancer-causing substance that is a byproduct of DuPont and Chemours' manufacturing processes -- is produced.

Wilmington residents are demanding to know if those toxic chemicals are making their way downriver into the city's drinking water.

The Cape Fear Public Utility Authority co-authored a three-year study on the chemical's elevated presence in the water. But as CBS News' Jericka Duncan reports, the findings were never made available to the general public -- not even to Wilmington Mayor Bill Saffo.
