	ATSDR - PHA - McGuire Air Force Base #1, Wrightstown, Burlington County, New Jersey
		McGuire AFB is an active U.S. Air Force Base in the borough of Wrightstown, Burlington County, New Jersey, approximately 30 miles east of Philadelphia.
		McGuire Air Force Base (McGuire AFB) is located on approximately 3,700 acres in the borough of Wrightstown, Burlington County, New Jersey, approximately 18 miles southeast of Trenton, New Jersey, and 30 miles east of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (Figures 1 and 2).
		Contamination in the shallow aquifer is not expected to migrate to the base water supply in the future because a confining layer separates the shallow aquifer from the deeper aquifer, thus preventing the transfer of contaminants to the groundwater from which the base draws its water.
