Summary

A major legal breakthrough in the 29th and Grove contamination case means thousands of homeowners are now part of a class-action lawsuit over TCE exposure linked to a Union Pacific site. The judge approved the class definition — excluding homes already with vapor barriers — after a health study found elevated liver cancer rates in the affected zone. Cleanup is underway, with Union Pacific cleared to build new facilities, and $3.5 million in grants distributed for free health screenings for residents, workers, and students exposed since the 1970s.
