Tucson and Marana join in water lawsuit
by
We’re following the latest on a water lawsuit filed by the city of Tucson and town of Marana to protect the public from potentially negative health effects from the groundwater supply.
The lawsuit alleges 3M, a company that manufactures firefighting foam used at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, contaminated parts of the water supply in Tucson and Marana.
3M, the company the city of Tucson and Marana is suing just settled a similar water lawsuit in Minnesota for $850 million dollars. One Tucson council member we talked to is hoping for a similar settlement that would go towards efforts in providing clean water.
