The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) invites the public to hear from the authors of a group of health studies conducted to understand the impact of exposure to contaminated drinking water at U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune in North Carolina.
These studies have linked exposures to the drinking water with a number of diseases and health conditions, including multiple cancers, preterm births, and neural tube defects. U.S. Marine Corps and Navy personnel, their families, and civilian employees who worked at the base participated in the studies.
For those not able to attend the meeting in person, a live stream of the meetings will be available for viewing via computer. The live stream will be available through the following link:
