Asbestos in Louisiana

For decades, Louisiana buildings and products have used asbestos. Because of this, many Louisiana residents have been exposed to asbestos and are at risk for contracting mesothelioma cancer.

The symptoms of mesothelioma often take decades to appear, so Louisiana workers are at risk even if they were exposed to asbestos decades ago. Examples of Louisiana asbestos exposure sites include:

• Louisiana factories
• Powerplants in Louisiana
• Refineries or Chemical Plants in Louisiana

Below is a list of 550 known sites of asbestos exposure in Louisiana. Asbestos exposure is known to have occurred in at least 151 Louisiana cities, though the number is likely even higher.
