faces lawsuits
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A
chemical weapons depot used by
the Army that has weathered
bomb threats and false alarms
now faces a lawsuit from workers
who claim they were sickened by
highly toxic nerve gas and mus
tard agents.
The 18 workers, who are build
ing an incinerator at the Umatilla
Chemical Depot, claim the Army is
hiding leaks that occurred on
Sept. 15,1999.
In filing the federal lawsuit
Monday, lawyer James E. McCan-
dlish sought an injunction to halt
construction of the incinerator in
eastern Oregon near Hermiston
until certain safety protections are
in place. The suit also seeks com
pensation and damages for the
workers.
