Background of the Camp Lejeune Water Contamination

Camp Lejeune, a U.S. Marine Corps base located in North Carolina, as well as MCAS New River, experienced water contamination for several decades. From the 1953 to 1987, military personnel and their families were exposed to toxic chemicals due to contaminated drinking water. The contamination resulted from various sources, including leaking underground storage tanks and industrial activities on the base.

The water at Camp Lejeune was found to contain several toxic chemicals, including:

Trichloroethylene (TCE): A solvent used in metal degreasing, TCE is a known human carcinogen. Prolonged exposure to TCE has been linked to various cancers, including kidney cancer, liver cancer, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Perchloroethylene (PCE): Used in dry cleaning processes, PCE is another potentially harmful chemical found in the water at Camp Lejeune. PCE exposure has been associated with adverse health effects, including liver damage, respiratory issues, and potential reproductive and developmental harm.
Benzene: Benzene is a widely recognized carcinogen found in gasoline and other petroleum-based products. Prolonged exposure to benzene can increase the risk of developing leukemia, as well as other blood-related cancers.

These toxic chemicals, among others, have had a devastating impact on the health and well-being of those exposed to the contaminated water at Camp Lejeune.
