Marinette, Wisconsin is uniquely significant — Tyco Fire Products (Ansul Company), one of the major defendants in MDL 2873 and an AFFF manufacturer, operated in Marinette and contaminated local groundwater with PFAS. Marinette residents have filed PFAS claims directly against Tyco/Ansul. Volk Field ANG in Juneau County and Truax Field ANG in Madison are additional military PFAS sources.
