>> A Honolulu Star-Advertiser editorial on Page A14 Dec. 27 mischaracterized trace elements of petroleum found in tap water from the Navy’s Hickam-area system as “fuel” and “jet fuel,” when in fact the source of the total petroleum hydrocarbon had not yet been identified. The editorial also stated that the Environmental Protection Agency has set an “action level” for contamination by petroleum elements; that level was set by the Hawaii Department of Health.
