Asbestos Exposure in Nebraska
While Nebraska has no naturally occurring asbestos, and a low risk of exposure, there is still a risk in small manufacturing facilities and power plants. Asbestos-containing materials were used for over half a century to insulate electric wiring, panel partitions, fire doors, electrical conduits, plaster, drywall, and even cement in numerous power and manufacturing plants.
Unfortunately, many of the families of these workers also have an increased risk of developing cancer because of the asbestos fibers that were carried home on the body and clothing of those workers.
Provided below is a list of cities in the state of Nebraska where asbestos jobsites are known to have been located. If you worked for any of these companies or at these jobsites in Nebraska, there is a possibility that you may have been exposed to harmful asbestos which is known to cause mesothelioma and lung cancer.
