Navy investigates 1980s Camp Lejeune water hazard.

 

Did you live or work at Camp Lejeune in 1987 or before?  If so, please register online. 

In the early 1980s, two solvents-both unregulated at the time - were found in two water systems serving the Tarawa Terrace and Hadnot Point areas: TCE and PCE.  Certain drinking-water wells were identified as the source and were taken out of service.  The Agency for Toxic Substance and Disease Registry is determining whether an association exists between exposure to the water and certain adverse health effects.  The National Academy of Sciences is Evaluating specific health Risks associated with exposure. 

Upson completion of the research, the Marine Corps will notify those on the registry through direct mail and email.
