Contaminated Water At Camp Lejeune Is Responsible For :
You may entitled to seek significant financial compensation for toxic water exposure if you were diagonosed with any of the health conditions or illness listed below and you served in active duty resisded or served at Base Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987.
Breathing high levels of vinyl chloride can cause you to feel dizzy or sleepy. Breathing very high levels can cause you to pass out, and breathing extremely high levels can cause death.
Some people who have breathed vinyl chloride for several years have changes in the structure of their livers. People are more likely to develop these changes if they breathe high levels of vinyl chloride. Some people who work with vinyl chloride have nerve damage and develop immune reactions. The lowest levels that produce liver changes, nerve damage, and immune reaction in people are not known. Some workers exposed to very high levels of vinyl chloride have problems with the blood flow in their hands. Their fingers turn white and hurt when they go into the cold.
The effects of drinking high levels of vinyl chloride are unknown. If you spill vinyl chloride on your skin, it will cause numbness, redness, and blisters.
Animal studies have shown that long-term exposure to vinyl chloride can damage the sperm and testes.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has determined that vinyl chloride is a known carcinogen. Studies in workers who have breathed vinyl chloride over many years showed an increased risk of liver, brain, lung cancer, and some cancers of the blood have also been observed in workers.

Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Timeline
Construction of Camp Lejeune, named in honor of the 13th Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps, John A. Lejeune, begins in Onslow County, North Carolina. It includes the early housing development, Hadnot Point, and the Hadnot Point water system. The Hadnot Point water system is the first of two water systems on the base recognized as causing the Camp Lejeune water contamination disaster.
The housing development, Tarawa Terrace, begins operations, including its water treatment system, the second of the two systems that became contaminated.
This is the year Hadnot Point's drinking water system was affected by toxic chemicals. The contamination primarily resulted from leaking underground storage tanks as well as oil and other waste disposed of improperly, according to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR).
According to ATSDR, the Tarawa Terrace water treatment system is contaminated by toxins from the neighboring business ABC One-Hour Cleaners.
When did Camp Lejeune
Water get Contaminated?
Service memeber and their families stationed at a military facility in North Carolina for more than 30 years unknowingly drank and took showers in water that was tainted with dangerous chemicals. Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina, examine its water supply for environment pollutants in the 1980s. The base discovered substances like benzene,vinyl chloride, tricholoroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene. These poisons, according to ,raise the chance of a number of malignancies, congenital disorders, and Parkinson’s disease. Over a million people called Camp Lejeune home at the time of contamination.
“ In 1982, testing of drinking water began at U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. The tests showed pollution in the drinking water at same housing. The water had chemiccals called volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs are used to clean machinery and weapons and in dry cleaning“
