General Electric Plant (Pittsfield): Asbestos Exposure
The General Electric Plant in Pittsfield, is just one of many Asbestos exposure sites in Pittsfield, MA. Asbestos, even in small amounts, is a known cause of Malignant Mesothelioma, a deadly lung cancer.

The damage to the lungs caused by asbestos fibers is not apparent at first, but asbestos exposure can lead to serious, debilitating, and often fatal diseases. These include mesothelioma lung cancer, asbestos cancer, and asbestosis. Usually, a period of 10 to 40 years or more passes after exposure at General Electric Plant or any other asbestos worksite in MA before the asbestos victim exhibits the first asbestos disease symptoms.
