Navy to withhold full Red Hill fuel leak report

TL;DR - Top Navy officials have repeatedly vowed to be transparent with the public as they investigate how jet fuel ended up in their Red Hill drinking water well and the taps of residents living in neighborhoods in and around Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam.

But the Navy is now hedging on the release of a much-anticipated investigation into the source of the petroleum contamination that began sickening families in late November.

Officials confirmed Monday that the report had been submitted to the commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet on Jan. 14, as anticipated. But the Navy says the report remains under review and that it plans to release only a summary of its findings.
