The England air force base, now called England Airpark, is a sprawling former military facility in Louisiana where Pfas levels in the groundwater have been found at at least 41m parts per trillion (ppt).
Federal drinking water limits for several Pfas compounds range from 4 to 10ppt, meaning the levels have been at least 575,000 times higher than the limit. Military bases are often contaminated with high quantities of Pfas, but England’s groundwater has shown the highest levels ever recorded, and it is among the most Pfas-polluted sites in the US.

As a little L libertarian, “we” have been pointing out the the Gooferment is the biggest polluter that we have in our control. There are politicians and bureaucrats lecturing about “climate change”, and “Earth Day” but no one is addressing the crap that “we” are doing like pollution.
When will base commanders be held accountable for pollution and remediation?
“When in a hole, stop digging!” — old Wall Street maxim.
