Fort Bragg to overhaul water plant to cut cancer-causing chemical
Fort Bragg plans changes to its water-treatment plant to reduce trihalomethanes, a chemical linked to cancer in labs. Two construction projects will modify equipment and add a one million gallon tank, with bids due next month and completion about a year after. About 65,000 Fort Bragg and 5,500 Pope AFB residents use the system, and recent samples show the chemical rising above EPA limits but have recently fallen below.

Mold in East Tennessee tobacco crops slows concern
Blue mold has appeared in burley tobacco in Grainger and Hancock counties, but officials say the fungus is unlikely to cause major damage due to late arrival and damp, cool conditions. Tobacco remains Tennessee’s top cash crop, valued at about $212.5 million last year, with forecasts favorable for 1994 despite weather.
