Camp Lejeune Water Contamination
From 1953 to 1987, toxic chemicals contaminated the drinking water at Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act now allows veterans and families to seek compensation.
What Happened at Camp Lejeune?
For over three decades, the drinking water at Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base was contaminated with toxic chemicals including trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), benzene, and vinyl chloride.
An estimated 1 million military and civilian personnel were exposed to these carcinogenic substances through drinking, bathing, and cooking with the contaminated water. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 now provides a path to justice for victims.
