Liability Overview
Liability Considerations in Tacoma
Joint Base Lewis-McChord near Tacoma has documented extensive PFAS contamination from decades of AFFF fire training at the Army and Air Force components. The PFAS plume has migrated off-base into Pierce County groundwater. Washington has a 3-year statute of limitations and banned PFAS-containing firefighting foam in 2018. Tacoma-area residents near JBLM who consumed contaminated water and developed kidney cancer, testicular cancer, or thyroid disease have strong AFFF exposure claims.
