Asbestos Exposure in North Carolina

North Carolina has a number of asbestos risks due to its military bases, industrial worksites, and several vermiculite plants. Veterans who were based at Fort Bragg, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejuene, and Seymour Johnson Air Force Base may have been at risk due to high levels of asbestos in the facilities.
Power plant workers in North Carolina may also have a high risk of exposure. Asbestos was often found in the insulation materials used to wrap electrical conduits, and was in the plaster, drywall, and the cement used to construct the power plant buildings.
Provided below is a list of cities in the state of North Carolina where asbestos jobsites are known to have been located. If you worked for any of these companies or at these jobsites in North Carolina there is a possibility that you may have been exposed to harmful asbestos which is known to cause mesothelioma and lung cancer.
