From November 1984 to February 1985, Camp Lejeune took eight Hadnot Point wells and two Tarawa Terrace wells out of service due to sampling results which indicated the presence of VOCs. Residents used one of the closed wells (TT-23) one day in March 1985 and three days in April 1985 to meet water needs at the Tarawa Terrace housing area.Tarawa Terrace residents used this well with sampling and oversight from the State of North Carolina, which has primary authority for Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) regulation within the state.
