02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Kansas has multiple military PFAS contamination sites, including McConnell AFB in Wichita (where 2,700+ residents were provided bottled water) and Fort Riley near Junction City. Wichita is a major metropolitan area where PFAS in municipal water has received local media attention and created significant potential claimant populations.
Kansas personal injury claims are governed by K.S.A. § 60-513, providing a 2-year limitations period from discovery. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873 (D.S.C.). McConnell AFB in Wichita has documented PFAS contamination affecting thousands of area residents who were provided bottled water by the Air Force after PFAS was detected above EPA advisory levels in nearby wells. Fort Riley in Junction City has also documented PFAS from AFFF training operations.
