Filing Venue

Where to File in North Dakota

North Dakota personal injury claims are governed by N.D. Cent. Code § 28-01-16, providing a 6-year limitations period — very favorable for PFAS claimants. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873 (D.S.C.). Minot AFB in Ward County (home of B-52 bombers and ICBMs) and Grand Forks AFB in Grand Forks County are the primary military PFAS sites. Both are major strategic installations with substantial AFFF history.
