Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Lawsuit

At Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, the drinking water was contaminated with hazardous chemicals from the 1950s to the late 1980s—including perchloroethylene (a dry cleaning chemical), trichloroethylene (a degreaser), benzene (from the fuel farm), and vinyl chloride. Consequently, up to a million marine corps personnel and their families unknowingly drank and bathed in toxic water. The U.S. Marine Corps knew the water was hazardous, yet they did nothing to fix it. Instead, they hid this information for decades. The U.S. Federal Government started investigating these allegations in 2009 and found that the water was linked to multiple cancers and diseases.

Recently, Congress passed the Camp Lejeune Justice Act to provide damages to those affected by the toxic exposure.
