Retail: Carlie C’s leader Mack McLamb won a state retail advocacy award as the Johnston County grocer has grown from 14 stores in 2015 to 33 today. Hemp Businesses: North Carolina sellers face an uncertain future as a federal ban expected Dec. 11 could outlaw many THC drinks, gummies and edibles, forcing some shops to reconsider leases and purchases. Energy: Davidson County commissioners narrowly approved Duke Energy’s proposed natural gas storage facility, part of a larger project intended to meet rising electricity demand. Environment: State regulators say Chemours’ PFAS cleanup plans fall short and are demanding broader contamination assessments and a stronger groundwater restoration plan.
