Asbestos Exposure in New York
The destruction from 9/11 brought much attention to New York for asbestos exposure. When the twin towers collapsed on September 1, 2001, the debris released hazardous asbestos fibers into the air.
Fireproofing materials throughout the buildings contained asbestos. Experts conclude the dust and debris from the rubble polluted the air and may have put thousands of first responders and residents at risk.
From 1858-1972, Johns Manville, an insulation and construction producer, was headquartered in New York. Johns Manville produced fire resistant roofing containing asbestos. Johns Manville became one of the leading manufacturers of asbestos cement pipe and fiberglass.
Statistics for Mesothelioma Cases in New York
New York ranks 5th in the US for asbestos-related deaths. There have been 2,406 deaths from mesothelioma and asbestos lung cancer between 1999 – 2013.
