Thank you, @EPAregion6 for the insightful visit to the RSR Corp. #Superfund site. The cleanup & #redevelopment of this former lead smelter site is a great example of how EPA is working to improve public health and address historic environmental injustice.

It was powerful to be in North Carolina & South Carolina with @POTUS , @SecMayorkas , and @FEMA_Deanne to survey the damage from Hurricane Helene. Meeting with first responders and community members, I reassured them that @EPA has their back for as long as it takes.

Beware of scammers after disasters like #Helene . Never agree to pay a fee to fill out an application - we will never ask you for money to apply for disaster assistance. Ask to see a photo ID - all FEMA staff carry an identification badge. Report fraud:
