The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), which supports this authority, works to educate the public about environmental issues and foster community stewardship across North Carolina as described on its official website. The DEQ aims to provide science-based stewardship that benefits the health and prosperity of residents throughout the state. Its regulatory scope includes air quality regulation, permit issuance, environmental law enforcement, waste management services, and oversight of water resources across North Carolina.
