The Missouri Pass Landfill, located near the Ashton Park neighborhood and Ranken-Jordan Pediatric Hospital, has reported elevated levels of methane gas, potentially exposing area residents, families and businesses.
The Simmons law firm is currently investigating possible property damage claims related to the Missouri Pass Landfill exposing area residents’ homes to potentially dangerous levels of methane gas. According to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, the Missouri Pass Landfill, which shut down nearly 15 years ago, is emitting increased levels of methane gas.
