The fact is, many in the U.S. assume their drinking water is safe only to learn later they have been consuming toxic chemicals due to inadequate pollution controls and hazardous waste disposal practices. The results for a community like Flint, Michigan, for example, where residents were told their water was safe even after it was knowingly switched to an unsafe source, have been devastating. In other communities, like Hoosick Falls, New York, residents only recently learned that they have been consuming a tasteless, odorless toxic chemical for decades. No matter where drinking water comes from, it can become contaminated. Sometimes, it’s necessary to pursue legal means to get it cleaned up again. That’s where we can help.
1-800-LAW-FIRM is an advocate and leader in the fight to protect the public from contaminated drinking water. A recent study of public water supplies found unsafe levels of chemicals in the water consumed every day by 6 million people. Unfortunately, that number represents only the tip of the iceberg when you factor in the number of people whose water was not tested as part of the study, including those who consume contaminated water from private wells, or people whose water is at risk of being contaminated.
Wichita, KS
The cause of the contamination: the Union Pacific railyard at 29th and Grove.
In the early 1990s, the contaminant was found in the area during the revitalization of 21st Street. KDHE traced the cause back to the UP railyard. That means the contamination spread more than two miles and potentially impacted thousands of lives.
Forest Hills, KS
The cause of the contamination: the Textron Aviation site on East Central.
Preliminary testing in the early 1990's showed signs of solvent contamination in soil and groundwater at the site. Contamination mainly consists of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and aromatic volatiles (BETX).

Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a colorless liquid which is used as a solvent for cleaning metal parts.
Drinking or breathing high levels of TCE may cause nervous system effects, liver and lung damage, abnormal heartbeat, coma, and possibly death. TCE was found in at least 852 of the 1,430 National Priorities List sites identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
