Liability Considerations in Tuscaloosa
The City of Tuscaloosa filed a water system PFAS contamination claim in MDL 2873, documenting PFAS in its municipal drinking water infrastructure. Alabama's Black Warrior River watershed, which supplies Tuscaloosa's water, has been affected by PFAS from industrial and military sources in the region. Maxwell AFB near Montgomery — 60 miles east of Tuscaloosa — is the state's highest-profile military PFAS contamination site, but multiple industrial PFAS sources in the Alabama River corridor have contributed to statewide water contamination. Residents of Tuscaloosa who consumed city tap water and developed PFAS-linked cancers or thyroid disease should evaluate their claims under Alabama's 2-year statute of limitations.
