This is a big deal. And I said to the military directly to the Pentagon, you guys have a bit of an earthquake coming. When the EPA changes that standard, both what you're allowed to seep into the ground at bases, but also the exposure for the active duty and National Guard, you're going to have to change up what you do here. It's coming, it's a common, and I think that as that standard changes, it's going to put a lot more focus from the surrounding communities, from our veterans on this issue. (16:07–16:21)

CLAIM
