Abstract:

The United States Geological Survey recently released two reports on groundwater quality studies conducted at the United States Marine Corps Air Station, Cherry Point, North Carolina. The studies were undertaken in response to the increasing water supply needs of the Air Station and the potential for contamination of the Castle Hayne aquifer by waste disposal and spills. A summary of the results is provided in this article.
