An industrial manufacturing facility operated by Baxter Healthcare Corporation released cancer-causing toxic emissions into communities around Mountain Home for decades, putting tens of thousands of nearby residents, workers, and students at grave risk.
The facility is located at 1900 North Highway 201 in northern Mountain Home, AR, this is not the community hospital.
Toxic Polluting
Baxter’s facility was deemed a high risk by the state of Arkansas after an inspection showed it was polluting ethylene oxide (EtO), a known human carcinogen.
EtO exposure has been linked to multiple cancers and death. This facility and others like it use EtO in manufacturing, research, and sterilization.

Ethylene oxide is used to make various industrial chemicals, such as ethylene glycol, and is also used in some cases to sterilize equipment and other goods.
EtO is an odorless and colorless gas, so residents have no idea it is surrounding their home or place of work. It poses severe health hazards, and chronic exposure can lead to serious health issues. The EPA classified ethylene oxide as a human carcinogen.
Cancers associated with EtO:
- Breast
- Leukemia
- Lung Cancer
- Lymphoma
- Myeloma/Multiple Myeloma
