RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - Saying the plans they received aren't adequate, state officials have directed Duke Energy to resubmit its plans for assessing groundwater at North Carolina’s 14 coal ash facilities because the plans the company submitted to the state in September are inadequate.

Officials on Wednesday sent letters to Duke detailing what the company must do before resubmitting work plans for all of its facilities.

Revised plans are due within 30 days.

According to a news release, the letter included this:

 “The plan as submitted fails to provide an adequate level of detail regarding the planned assessment activities, which if left unchanged may lead to an inadequate assessment of environmental conditions at the site,” Jay Zimmerman, a section chief in the state agency, wrote to Harry K. Sideris, a senior vice president at Duke Energy about the coal ash impoundments at the Asheville Steam Electric Plant.
