California Power Generation Jobsites — Asbestos Exposure

California's coal-fired power plants, steam generating stations, and industrial utilities rank among the highest-density asbestos exposure worksites in the region. Every boiler drum, turbine casing, and mile of high-pressure steam piping was insulated with asbestos-containing materials from the 1930s through the 1980s — and outage workers returned to the same sites for decades.

California Filing Deadline
California sets a short filing deadline for asbestos claims, running from diagnosis. The deadline and how it is counted are set by statute — see California Codes — California Legislative Information. Power plant workers frequently develop mesothelioma 20–50 years after exposure — by diagnosis, the clock is already running. Contact an attorney immediately.
