Officials: Dioxin found near Camp Carroll doesn't point to Agent Orange

Officials: Dioxin found near Camp Carroll doesn't point to Agent Orange

Trace amounts of dioxin have been found in streams near Camp Carroll, though both U.S. and South Korean officials say the amounts are too small to be hazardous to human health and do not indicate the presence of Agent Orange.

The South Korean officials said Thursday that they will continue testing water from the three sites where dioxin was found.
