Imperial Beach is more than just a community shaped by its environment, it’s a tight-knit surf town with a strong working-class identity, anchored by military families who call it home. A recent report from the Department of Defense confirms what local doctors have warned about for years: the Tijuana River is contaminating Imperial Beach, sickening residents, and putting military personnel, including Navy SEALs, at serious risk.
This is not just a local environmental issue; it is a public health crisis and a national concern that puts the readiness of troops at risk.
