WV Mesothelioma Exposure Sites like Steel Mills, Power Plants, pose Hidden Dangers Across the Mountain State
For decades, West Virginia workers were exposed to dangerous levels of asbestos across industries like steel, chemical, and energy. Many of those exposed are now facing life-altering diagnoses like mesothelioma — a cancer almost exclusively linked to asbestos exposure.
If you or a loved one worked at one of these known sites, you may be eligible to file a claim or lawsuit. Here are some of the most recognized asbestos exposure sites in West Virginia.
🔧 Weirton Steel – Weirton, WV
Once one of the largest employers in the state, Weirton Steel exposed workers to asbestos in insulation, piping, furnaces, and machinery. Thousands of steelworkers were at risk from the 1940s through the 1980s.
🏭 Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel – Follansbee, WV
Another major steel plant, Wheeling-Pitt’s Follansbee operations used asbestos-laden materials in high-heat environments and throughout maintenance infrastructure. Boilers, coke ovens, and even worker uniforms could carry the deadly fibers.
⚡ Mitchell Power Station – Marshall County, WV
Asbestos was widely used in power plants to insulate turbines, boilers, and ducts. Mitchell Power Station is among the WV facilities linked to potential asbestos exposure — especially for those in electrical, mechanical, or maintenance roles.
⚠️ Pleasants Power Station – Willow Island, WV
This coal-fired plant is another high-risk site where asbestos was used in insulation and thermal systems. Workers and contractors alike may have unknowingly inhaled asbestos fibers here.
