Liability Overview

Liability Considerations in Houston

Houston's Ship Channel corridor is one of the largest concentrations of ethylene oxide production and use in the United States. Major petrochemical companies produce EtO as a chemical feedstock, and sterilization facilities process medical devices in the greater Houston area. EPA TRI data documents substantial annual EtO emissions from Harris County industrial sources. Texas's 2-year statute of limitations from diagnosis requires prompt filing for Houston-area residents diagnosed with EtO-linked cancers.
