Did you work or live at Camp Lejeune or Camp Pendleton between 1972 and 1985? The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), with the support of the U.S. Marine Corps, is conducting a survey to learn about your health. Your input is important. If you get a survey – please fill it out and return it.
The survey will be mailed to 300,000 people between June and December 2011. Those receiving the survey include a representative sample of former Marines or sailors who were stationed at Camp Lejeune anytime from 1975 -1985, civilian employees who worked there anytime during 1972-1985, those who were part of a previous 1999-2002 ATSDR survey, and those who registered on the U.S. Marine Corps website before June 15, 2011, as well as a representative sample of people who lived or worked at Camp Pendleton during this time period.
The survey will ask participants about dates and locations of when and where they lived or worked at Camp Lejeune or Camp Pendleton, as well as their work history and health.
ATSDR will offer the survey in both paper copy and web-based version. The findings are expected to be released in early 2014.
Survey recipients can complete the questionnaire on paper or online.
