4 Street address unknown, City unknown, Franklin County, North Carolina Former exfoliation facility Unknown Unknown Unknown An EPA database compiled from W.R. Grace shipping invoices did not contain any records indicating Libby ore was shipped to this site. However, a report issued in 1953 by the Bureau of Mines (at that time in the U.S. Department of the Interior) indicated this facility was a vermiculite exfoliation plant. Although this site was on EPA’s list of sites that potentially received ore from Libby, Montana, EPA had no documentation indicating whether it had investigated this site.
