The NPDES permit is required under the U.S. Clean Water Act and authorizes the regulated discharge of treated stormwater and other permitted water associated with mining and related site activities. The application filing represents an important step in the environmental permitting process for the Coosa Graphite Project. The submitted application includes site-specific engineering, hydrologic, and environmental analyses to support compliance with applicable federal and state water quality standards. ADEM will review the application in accordance with its established regulatory procedures, which include technical evaluation and a public notice and comment period.

Westwater Resources announced that the U.S. Department of Commerce, or DOC, issued its final determination in the anti-dumping and countervailing duty investigations of graphite-based anode materials imported from the People's Republic of China. The DOC's preliminary determinations in 2025 imposed countervailing and anti-dumping duties of 11.58% and 93.5%, respectively. In its final determination released on February 11, 2026, the DOC increased the countervailing duty rate to 66.68% and maintained the anti-dumping duty rate at 93.5%. The company estimates total penalties on Chinese natural graphite anode material U.S. imports now total approximately 220%. The DOC's final determination follows a year-long investigation into alleged subsidization of Chinese anode material producers and pricing practices affecting the U.S. market. It remains subject to a final affirmative injury determination by the U.S. International Trade Commission, expected in March. If the ITC issues a final affirmative decision, then the DOC duties will remain in effect for a minimum of five years in accordance with applicable U.S. trade law. The company believes the combined effect of these trade measures could further increase demand for U.S.-produced natural graphite anode material from buyers within a variety of lithium-ion battery markets.
