7/3 - What You Need to Know About Camp Lejeune Water Contamination

Protecting Military Families

In 1980, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enacted new regulations that required water testing at Camp Lejeune. The EPA’s initial reports and testing illustrated heavily contaminated and toxic drinking water. In response to this report, the Marine Corps contracted a private company to monitor and test the quality of Camp Lejeune's drinking water. The contractor’s testing resulted in high levels of contaminated water. The toxic water report was provided to Camp Lejeune officials in 1982. The Marine Corps ignored the toxic water reports and military families continued to drink contaminated water without knowing the truth. In 1983, Camp Lejeune officials reported to the EPA that there were no toxic environmental issues at Camp Lejeune. Subsequently, North Carolina agencies requested copies of the water testing, and Marine Corps officials declined to share the reports.
In 1984, an EPA superfund contractor conducted a review of Camp Lejeune’s water supply. The contractor’s review resulted in a finding of contaminated drinking water including dangerous levels of Benzene and other VOCs. As a result of this damaging revelation, the Marine Corps stopped using one of the contaminated wells. In 1989, the EPA officially declared Camp Lejeune and an off-site dry cleaning facility as superfund sites.
