Get a free legal assessment of your case if you were harmed by asbestos.

In recent news about the dangers of exposure to asbestos, state officials are concerned that a defunct mine, Vermont Asbestos Group Mine in Eden and Lowell, could still pose environmental and health risks. They have identified the surrounding area as a cancer cluster.

The Health Department just released a report identifying the site as the state's only cancer cluster.

The report found an increased risk of lung cancer and other diseases related to asbestos exposure among people living within a ten-mile radius of the site.

There is an estimated 29 million tons of asbestos-contaminated waste at the former mine.
