Wisconsin Company Knew It Was Contaminating Ground Water Before Telling Anyone

Records held by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources show a Marinette company knew it was contaminating groundwater at least four years before letting people know.  Tyco Fire Products found soil and well contamination on its property in 2013.  Some of the chemicals found have been linked to cancer.  Tyco acknowledged the chemicals had spread in 2017 and provided bottled water to neighbors who could have been affected.  The company says it didn’t know the contamination had spread to nearby properties until 2016.
