Colorado Environmental Lawyer For Superfund Sites Causing Pollution

Environmental Pollution in Colorado from Superfund Sites

Residents of Colorado may be at risk of serious health problems arising if they live close to a Superfund site. Property may be devalued if it is contaminated by the pollution often found at these sites. If your health has been affected or your property has been devalued, you can punish polluters by filing a lawsuit against them with the help of an environmental toxic tort lawyer.

Weitz & Luxenberg is nationally known for its groundbreaking work in MTBE and asbestos litigation, handling tens of thousands of lawsuits for clients across the country.

Superfund was enacted by the United States Congress on December 11, 1980 in response to the Love Canal disaster. This law created a tax on petroleum and chemical industries and provided broad federal authority to respond directly to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances that may endanger public health or the environment. Over five years, $1.6 billion was collected, and the tax went to a trust fund for cleaning up abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous waste sites.

Inclusion of a site on the NPL does not in itself require potentially liable parties to initiate action to cleanup the site, nor does it assign liability to any person. The NPL serves primarily informational purposes, identifying for the States and the public those sites or other releases that appear to warrant remedial actions.

The EPA lists 1,604 Superfund sites as of May 2005.

Don't let Superfund polluters get away with harming Colorado's natural resources and your health.
