Representatives Case, Kahele back a bill to shut down Navy's Red Hill fuel tanks

TL;DR - Hawaiʻi's U.S. Reps Ed Case and Kaialiʻi Kahele said Friday they have introduced legislation to permanently shut down the U.S. Navy's fuel storage facility near Pearl Harbor.

Late last year jet fuel leaked into drinking water and showed up in military family homes. Many families became ill or developed rashes after bathing in and drinking the water.

Kahele and Case said during a rally Friday at the state Capitol that they want Congress to permanently close the facility.
