More than 20 participants had gone through testing with over 35 people interested in the project EJCAN was able to collect valuable rural health data, deploy sensors for air quality, collect well water samples to test for contaminants, and present this data to the community members. EJCAN has been providing water pitchers to community members with tested well water contamination by collaborating with partners at NCDHHS and the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ). Since the start of this project, 27 water pitchers and 28 filters have been provided to community members EJCAN) has been active in community outreach and gaining feedback from community members to help guide future program planning. This included meeting with community members across the county, attending community meetings and building relationships with local leaders to identify potential members of a community advisory group, and getting bilingual survey feedback from dozens of community members regarding what issues they consider to be important and what are barriers that prevent them from attending programs. EJCAN is working on an ongoing Air Quality Project in partnership with CleanAIRE NC, Easter Research Group (ERG), Research Triangle Institute (RTI), and UNC-Charlotte. This projects main goal is to fill the void of lack of data in this part of the state. We also work with community members, called AirKeepers, that host air quality sensors at their homes for an extended period of time. AirKeepers also participate in training sessions and gather the data. EJCAN negotiated a Consent Decreewhich is a binding agreement filed in federal courtthat required GFL to stop discharging massive amounts of PFAS into Bearskin Swamp, the stream that runs by the Landfill and through the Snow Hill Community. Specifically, GFL agreed to install a treatment system to remove PFAS from its wastewater and to track and respond to public complaints, install an odor-monitoring system around the landfill, and make the data publicly available. The real-time odor monitoring website went live in October. In 2026, once the system has been running for a full year, GFL will be required to retain an independent expert to recommend odor-reduction measures based on the systems data. Over the past year, EJCANs work and research have been featured in several academic journals, including Special Issue: Cumulative Impacts, and the American Bar Association Trends magazine online and etc. 502390 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 43 0 true 9 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 10 10 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false true true true false X Sherri White-Williamson 9102999118 200 Northeast Blvd Clinton NC 28328 Sherri White-Williamson Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X 80000 0 0 Edward Gillim Vice Chair 0.25 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Margaret Galka Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Zachary Halden Board Member 0.10 0.00 X 0 0 0 Allie Sheffield Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Wanda White Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jeff Robbins Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Judy Truitt Board Member 0.25 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kemp Burdette Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Cynthia Peurifoy Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Marilynn M Robinson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 80000 0 0 0 false false false 60585 658944 719529 3780 3780 15669 16327 -658 -658 722651 0 0 3122 80000 60000 20000 255520 225520 30000 27762 23625 4137 75808 55808 20000 25400 25400 30338 30338 12810 12810 21247 14867 6380 1499 1099 400 28011 5602 22409 3789 2842 947 26285 21028 5257 31574 25259 6315 22486 17509 4977 Tour Transportation 5445 5445 Meals 1023 1023 Air Monitor Supplies 638 638 649635 502390 147245 0 152214 433552 319556 94574 4520 777148 48198 62687 728950 629031 1167022 60300 125000 398275 60300 523275 X 568731 643747 568731 643747 629031 1167022 73016 2000 0 X false false X 87831 306187 514020 475260 719529 2102827 87831 306187 514020 475260 719529 2102827 704204 1398623 3780 3780 2106607 3135 0.66390 0.63750 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 554491 14218 540273 103429 2652 100777 69735 22437 47298 49493 8891 40602 728950 5th Annivers 15669 15669 6003 10324 15669 15669 6003 10324 16327 -658 Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 Form 990 is reviewed by the board of directors prior to its filing.
