Liability Overview
Liability Considerations in Fall River
Fall River residents near the PCS Taunton facility face dual exposure from both airborne EtO emissions and the highest EtO wastewater discharges in the country. Massachusetts's 3-year statute of limitations, recognition of strict liability for abnormally dangerous activities, and the Chapter 93A consumer protection statute provide multiple overlapping legal theories. The Trump exemption of PCS Taunton from the 2024 NESHAP rules strengthens willful disregard arguments.
