The Alamac Road Site in Robeson County, The Swift Creek Site in Nash County, and the Arthurs Creek site in Northampton County are all places where coal ash has contaminated the water supply. The use of coal ash as structural fill in North Carolina and its negative health effects on residents and the water supply are detailed.
