PFAS Contamination in the Town of Peshtigo (Marinette County, Wisconsin)

 

Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is investigating potential legal claims arising from PFAS contamination along the Peshtigo River in Marinette County, Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has confirmed the presence of PFAS in the Peshtigo River and in a nearby culvert. The Wisconsin DNR has indicated the largest source of contamination has spread from firefighting foam used at Tyco Fire Product’s fire training facility. Past tests have revealed high levels of PFAS contamination in private wells, groundwater, wastewater and local streams in the area. Exposure to PFAS water contamination may affect developing infants and children, affect the immune system, decrease fertility, interfere with the body’s natural hormones, increase cholesterol counts, and heighten the risk of some cancers.
