The Lejeune
Recovery Standard.
A deep technical breakdown of the 2026 Camp Lejeune Justice Act (CLJA). Analyzing Department of Justice (DOJ) settlement tracks, ATSDR water plume data, and the 30-day "Success Period" logic.
Plume & Latency Logic
The 30-Day Success Barrier
Per the PACT Act, any individual (Veteran, Family, or Civilian) who resided or worked at Camp Lejeune for at least 30 cumulative days between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987, is eligible for recovery.
ATSDR Plume Modeling
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) identified two main water systems: Tarawa Terrace (TCE contaminated) and Hadnot Point (PCE/TCE/Benzene/Vinyl Chloride). Eligibility depends on showing presence within these specific plume zones.

What is the CLJA 'Burden of Proof'?
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act implements a lower 'Equipose' burden of proof. Claimants only need to show that a causal link between the toxic water and their injury is 'at least as likely as not'.
Is there a cap on attorney fees?
Yes. In 2023, the DOJ implemented a 20% cap for administrative settlements and 25% for litigation cases. Our Auditor factors these offsets into your net recovery projection.
Can family members of deceased Veterans file?
Yes. The CLJA allows for wrongful death claims. These cases often command a 'Wrongful Death Multiplier' of 1.4x in our audit logic due to loss of consortium and estate damages.
What if I served and lived off-base?
If you worked on-base for at least 30 cumulative days, you are eligible regardless of your off-base residence. Proximity to specific contaminated wells at Tarawa Terrace or Hadnot Point is the primary forensic driver.
