Liability Considerations in Conyers
Conyers and Rockdale County residents within the BD Covington facility's emission footprint face the same EtO exposure risks documented in the Newton County litigation. The $70 million BD verdict establishes both the company's liability and the viability of claims from surrounding communities. Georgia's 2-year statute of limitations from diagnosis and the absence of damage caps make this a strong jurisdiction for EtO claims.
