Environmental Toxic Tort Lawyer for North Dakota Superfund Sites
Fight Air Pollution & Water Pollution

Environmental Pollution in North Dakota

People who live in North Dakota may be at risk of serious health issues arising if they live near a Superfund site. Property may be devalued if it has been affected by the pollutants often found in these Superfund areas.

If your health has been affected or your property has been damaged, you can hold polluters responsible 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 all across America.

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.
