Stockton Naval Command
Telecommunications Station

Picture
​The Rough and Ready Island Annex, which opened in 1944, operated as a supply Depot until 1959 when it became the Naval Communications Station for the Pacific Coast region. 

The station is a former United States Navy installation on the San Joaquin River in Stockton, California in San Joaquin County, near the Stockton Channel and was 3 miles  west of Stockton. The Supply Depot was built during World War II as part of the San Joaquin Depot that operated the near by Tracy Depot Facility and the Sharpe Depot Facility. 

The Depot Annex served the United States Pacific Fleet. The Depot warehoused naval stores, disposed of surplus Naval property and provided logistical support for other Naval bases. For some time the wharf was used to store as mothballed ships of the reserve fleet for the Pacific Reserve Fleet. The Naval Supply Depot was phased out of use.  It was transferred to the Port of Stockton between 2000 and 2003. This area of the port is now known as the "West Complex".


Picture

​ Stockton is identified as a DOD installation with known or suspected releases of PFOS/PFOA, according to a DOD Report to Congress on Aqueous Film-Forming Foam - Nov. 3, 2017.

No testing results were made public regarding the base, only that it is likely contaminated with the ”forever chemicals.”

California Water Service - Stockton  Serves: 185,346 Data available: 2012—2017
https://www.ewg.org/tapwater/system.php?pws=CA3910001
Source: Purchased surface water Contaminants Detected 12 EXCEED EWG HEALTH GUIDELINES

36 Total Contaminants

EWG's drinking water quality report shows results of tests conducted by the water utility and provided to the Environmental Working Group by the California State Water Resources Control Board, as well as information from the U.S. EPA Enforcement and Compliance History database (ECHO). For the latest quarter assessed by the U.S. EPA (January 2019 - March 2019), tap water provided by this water utility was in compliance with federal health-based drinking water standards.

Legal does not necessarily equal safe. Getting a passing grade from the federal government does not mean the water meets the latest health guidelines.
Legal limits for contaminants in tap water have not been updated in almost 20 years.
The best way to ensure clean tap water is to keep pollution out of source water in the first place

Picture
 In 2019, the California Water Board tested Stockton's water ad found Well 08 SSS to be contaminated with the following concentrations of PFOS/PFOA (in parts per trillion, ppt) 
PERFLUOROBUTANESULFONIC ACID (PFBS)        1 
PERFLUOROHEPTANOIC ACID (PFHpA)        1.3
PERFLUOROHEXANE SULFONIC ACID (PFHxS)     2.7
PERFLUORONONANOIC ACID (PFNA)  3.9
PERFLUOROOCTANE SULFONIC ACID (PFOS)       28
PERFLUOROOCTANOIC ACID (PFOA)   9.1
PERFLUORODECANOIC ACID (PFDA)   2.3

Editorial: Dead dogs and toxic fish: Welcome to Stockton, a city choking on California water policy
LA Times November 12, 2019
There's no mention in the Times editorial that Stockton NCS may be a cause of some of the contamination in the San Joaquin River. The rivers runs adjacent to the base.
