In general, the courts have established and upheld the principle that asbestos companies (the mining companies in particular) should be held responsible for cleaning up their own contamination, environmental and otherwise. In case after case, the Colorado courts have held mining companies and manufacturers liable for controlling exposure to asbestos even in cases where the defendant company only manufactured part of an asbestos-containing product, or when a company had only recently taken control of the assets of another company with asbestos-related assets.
