# Residents Alleged Companies Contaminated the Water Supply

By: Counsel Financial

 June 26, 2011

In a mass tort action, 102 residents of Mulberry, Florida, alleged that their water supply was contaminated with arsenic, thallium, and nitrates. Plaintiffs' counsel alleged that three different manufacturers produced the chemicals that ended up in the water supply. The residents' injuries ranged from high rates of cancer to rashes on the face and body. Defense argued that the chemicals found in the water supply were not produced by their operations.

**SETTLEMENT: $2 million, and another $1.6 million from another defendant**

Class of Fuller Heights Residents v. CSX Transportation Inc., KC Industries and Land O'Lakes Purina Feed LLC., Case No. 2007CA-006859-0000-00 (Polk County Circuit Court, FL, Hon. Karla Foreman Wright, March 26, 2011).
