A recent report released by "The Environmental Working Group" claims at least nine military facilities around the Chesapeake Bay are responsible for contaminants that are impacting water and wildlife, and possibly even making people sick.
Nine military bases near the Chesapeake Bay are contaminated with "forever chemicals" from firefighting foams used by the Defense Department, an environmental advocacy group warned this week.
The Environmental Working Group said the biggest risk is that the chemicals might have flowed out of the groundwater at military sites in Maryland and Virginia and into the bay.
