NSA Naples Collecting Indoor Radon Level Detectors NSA Naples is currently collecting indoor radon gas detectors as part of an ongoing Navywide program, with Naples as the first Navy installation in Europe to conduct a comprehensive study on its current facilities. Radon detectors, called alpha-track detectors, are being collected in Navy facilities at Capodichino, Support Site, Gaeta, Carney Park, and Navy-managed buildings at JFC (Lago Patria). The detectors have been placed in all basements and ground level indoor spaces inhabited at least four hours daily over the last year. Navy facilities in Naples were last tested in 1991-1992; however, the base infrastructure has since changed necessitating completion of a new test. For U.S. Environmental Protection Agency information on radon, go to www.epa.gov/radon. For more info, call the Environmental Office at DSN: 626-6706 or 081-568-6706.

Personnel outside the OneNet system can send an email to the NSA Naples Emergency Dispatch Office at MNA-NSAOPSEMDispatch-GS@eu.navy.mil. Family members must register through their sponsors. Lead Drinking Water Testing NSA Naples is planning on conducting new testing for lead in drinking water at our schools, Child Development Centers, and youth and teen centers. In the U.S., EPA recommends, and the Navy requires, testing for lead in drinking water in schools and day care centers. NSA Naples will be taking a number of steps that include: testing drinking water for lead; disseminating test results to parents, students, staff and other interested stakeholders; and taking appropriate and necessary actions to correct any problems identified during testing. Once completed, the test results from these locations will be available in their offices during working hours, on the command webpage at www.cnic.navy.mil/Naples, and on the command Facebook page.
