Camp Lejeune Facts & History

Camp Lejeune is a U.S. Marine Corps military base located in Jacksonville, North Carolina. It was established in 1941 and is still operational today. However, between 1953 and 1987, the drinking water at the military installation was heavily contaminated with volatile organic compounds, specifically trichloroethylene, vinyl chloride, benzene, and perchloroethylene. Two of the eight drinking water sources at Camp Lejeune became contaminated - Hadnot Point and Tarawa Terrace. At the former, the trichloroethylene level exceeded the safe exposure limit by 280 times, whereas at the latter, the perchloroethylene level eclipsed it by 43 times.

As many as one million people are believed to have drunk toxic water at the military base during the last century, which now places these individuals at high risk of developing serious diseases. Even though the water contamination issue began in 1953, it was only discovered by the U.S. Marine Corps in 1982. Because of the crippling illnesses people came to struggle with as a result of drinking toxic water, they began filing claims to recover financial compensation. While in the past, water contamination victims had a difficult time accessing compensation, today, by virtue of the Camp Lejeune Justice Act, they can easily file a claim with the U.S. government.
