CRISIS AT PEARL HARBOR - Soon after a fuel spill occurred close to the Navy's main drinking water system at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, base leadership assured thousands of families in military housing that their tap water was safe. Parents later learned the truth: the water they drank or used to bathe their children was contaminated with jet fuel. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi tours the once secret fuel storage site where the water crisis at Pearl Harbor began and meets military families who blame their health problems on the Navy's response to the spill. Guy Campanile is the producer.
DR KUZNETSOV - In the last two years, Ukraine has become the most mined country in the world, surpassing warzones like Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. 60 MINUTES' Scott Pelley travels to Izium, Ukraine - one of the most contaminated towns in the country - to see the crisis firsthand. On the ground he meets injured civilians, a heroic doctor treating them, and the deminers working to clear their land, mine by mine. Maria Gavrilovic is the producer.
INDIAN RELAY - 60 MINUTES correspondent Bill Whitaker reports from the chaotic and high-speed racetrack of "America's original extreme sport," Indian Relay. As horse nation tribes unite for an exciting and dangerous bareback horse race, Whitaker looks at how the sport continues to grow and offer new opportunities of pride to the next generation of Native American youth. Rome Hartman is the producer.
