The naval air station in Jacksonville provided the community with a
never-ending supply of intoxicated drivers, wife beaters, bar brawlers
and, of course, it was a well-known EPA toxic dump site.

If Pax River NC ever left, that part of Southern Maryland would dry up
and blow away. You would be trying to scratch out a living from a 3
month beach venue and the few tobacco farmers that still live down
there.

My guess is that the government here is a tad less lax than the
government in NE Florida when it comes to environmental issues. The
state's water pollution research facility is right across the mouth of
the PAX from the naval air station here.

I can't speak for those folks up in South Georgia but the water
quality network here is aggressive in finding violators and our water
monitoring infrastructure is more robust than the one up there in
Maryland (like eyes on the bay)

Our data meets EPA certification levels so it can be used in
prosecutions.

How old was that violation in Jax? Before the clean water act?
I also seem to remember there were problems in Dahlgren and Aberdeen.
The latter has been on the national priority list as a toxic waste
site for almost 25 years.

If memory serves, the Jax base was on the list for ground leakage of
that crap that used to ooze out of electrical transformers/substations.
This was in the mid 1990s.
