The High Court’s decision paves the way for service members and their families to bring their claims about toxic contamination to Hawaii state court.

The Navy said it turned off the automatic deployment of firefighting foam after a leak in the system.

Repairs are supposed to be completed before the safe removal of fuel from Red Hill can begin.

The project received criticism from both the military and residents, but Hawaii’s federal delegation kept advocating for it – until now.

His exit is unrelated to the Red Hill fuel disaster, the Navy said.

The Red Hill water contamination crisis has prompted outrage, even among those who have traditionally supported the military.

Meanwhile, new contamination maps released by the health department raise new and troubling questions.

U.S. Navy fuel operations in and around Pearl Harbor were found out of compliance with environmental protection rules in 2019. 

It’s been a year since a major leak at the Red Hill fuel facility, and the fuel is still sitting in tanks 100 feet above a major drinking water source.

Seventeen people were hospitalized, children experienced seizures and pets died, federal health officials found.
