Section 17
The adjutant general of the Massachusetts national guard shall request that the periodic health assessment for members of the Massachusetts national guard determine whether the guard member was deployed to a location that would make the guard member eligible to participate in the United States Department of Veterans Affairs’ Airborne Hazards and Open Burn Pit Registry, and whether the guard member was exposed to open burn pits or other airborne hazards during their deployment to said location. The adjutant general shall request that any guard member who during their periodic health assessment is identified as having been potentially exposed to open burn pits or other airborne hazards during a deployment is automatically registered to participate in the United States Department of Veterans Affairs’ Airborne Hazard and Open Burn Pit Registry.
