Asbestos in Oklahoma
For decades, Oklahoma buildings and products have used asbestos. Because of this, many Oklahoma residents have been exposed to asbestos and are at risk for contracting mesothelioma cancer.
The symptoms of mesothelioma often take decades to appear, so Oklahoma workers are at risk even if they were exposed to asbestos decades ago. Examples of Oklahoma asbestos exposure sites include:
- Oklahoma factories
- Powerplants in Oklahoma
- Refineries or Chemical Plants in Oklahoma
Below is a list of 165 known sites of asbestos exposure in Oklahoma. Asbestos exposure is known to have occurred in at least 56 Oklahoma cities, though the number is likely even higher.
The Oklahoma city with the most asbestos exposure sites was Tulsa, OK, with 57 known sites contaminated by asbestos.
