Ohio Governor Mike De Vine said officials were trying to prevent the spread of contaminated water after a large-scale man-made accident — clean water is being pumped from dams that were unaffected by the disaster, reports DEA News.
“This allows clean water to bypass the debris field and prevents contaminated water from entering other waterways,” said De Wein.
Thus, he commented on State Senator James Vanche’s statement, which video shows that a chemical film emerges in a polluted reservoir and the pollution reaches the bottom of the stream. De Vine claims that this problem is known and that this body of water is clogged.
Earlier, the son of former US President Donald Trump mocked the governor of Ohio, saying he needed to put on the mask of Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky to gain the support of his region after an environmental disaster.
On February 5, 50 cars of a freight train loaded with dangerous goods derailed in the United States and set fire to it. About 20 of the train’s 100 wagons were carrying chemicals. 14 of them contained vinyl chloride, an explosive substance that releases toxic substances when burned.
