Title: Public health assessment for Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station, Cherry Point, Craven County, North Carolina, Region 4. Cerclis No. NC1170027261

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:273231

Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Cherry Point is an active 11,485 acre installation north of the Town of Havelock in southeastern Craven County, North Carolina. ATSDR discussed groundwater contamination, treatment, usage with MCAS personnel during an August 1995 site visit and determined there is no current public health hazard associated with contaminated groundwater. In addition, we determined that other contaminated areas at the station (i.e., Installation Restoration Program (IRP) sites) do not currently pose a public health hazard because access to the sites is restricted or limited (thus exposure to contamination is not expected), migration of contaminants to areas where exposure might occur is not expected, and/or they have already been cleaned up.
