Asbestos in Arkansas
For decades, Arkansas buildings and products have used asbestos. Because of this, many Arkansas residents have been exposed to asbestos and are at risk for contracting mesothelioma cancer.
The symptoms of mesothelioma often take decades to appear, so Arkansas workers are at risk even if they were exposed to asbestos decades ago. Examples of Arkansas asbestos exposure sites include:
- Arkansas factories
- Powerplants in Arkansas
- Refineries or Chemical Plants in Arkansas
