What government or judicial agencies have reviewed Marine Corps’ actions at Camp Lejeune?
The EPA Criminal Investigative Division and the US Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina conducted a joint 3-year investigation into whether there was any criminal misconduct before the wells were taken out of service or afterwards when records were being requested. They concluded that there had been no violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act, no conspiracy to withhold information, falsify data, or conceal evidence regarding violation of any law. The Panel Report is available to the public. The U.S. Attorney’s office issued a Declination to Prosecute Statement in August 2005.
