Cameron Exposure
Recently the residents of Cameron, Missouri,
a town consisting of less than 9,000 residents became
aware of a cluster of brain tumors in their area.
Most of the tumors diagnosed in Cameron are large but
benign. Because doctors are required to report
cancerous tumors only to the state Health Department, no
agency is officially collecting data on all the
occurrences.
Two officials who oversee the
State’s cancer registry and its cancer inquiry unit said
they have received between 20 & 40 reports indicating
similar problems from area residents. They
cautioned that those reports are not yet verified.
A clear cause of this cluster of tumor diagnosis have
yet to be identified.
Peterson & Associates, P.C.
has filed multiple lawsuits against Susquehenna Corp. of
Delaware, which owned and managed,
Eteroutremer, a Belgium firm who owned Susquehenna Corp,
and former manager of Rockwool, Loren Brookshire of Cowgill, MO.
Our lawsuits allege that
Rockwool dumped toxic substances in and around the
Rockwool plant between 1974 & 1982, including properties
where our plaintiffs live. Our lawsuits also
alleges that Rockwool buried hazardous waste near the
plant and in a nearby quarry.
