Further investigation is underway because of confirmed
and potential uses of firefighting foam
at OLF Santa Rosa.
As part of the Preliminary Assessment of OLF Santa Rosa,
four areas have been identified as confirmed or potential
PFAS release areas.
The findings are included in a Preliminary Assessment Report,
which should be finalized in 2021.
Due to the identification of confirmed and potential PFAS
release areas, the Navy is preparing to conduct drinking
water well sampling in the designated area surrounding
OLF Santa Rosa in summer 2021.
The sampling area is shaded purple on the map.
The sampling area was established based on the
location of the PFAS release areas on-base and groundwater
flow direction, shown with light blue and dark blue arrows
on the map.
It includes all properties located within a mile in the
direction the groundwater flows away from the confirmed and
potential PFAS release areas.
The Navy is asking to sample drinking water wells only
in this area.
If your water is provided by the Holley-Navarre Water System
or East Milton Water System, the Navy is not asking to
sample your drinking water.
The Navy may expand the sampling area based on the
results of the summer 2021 sampling of drinking water wells.
