Waste shipments resume but health concerns linger
EAST PALESTINE, Ohio — The removal of contaminated waste from the site of Ohio's fiery train derailment has restarted amid residents' concerns about their health.
The work restarted on Monday after it was temporarily halted due to concerns over how it was being shipped over the weekend, federal officials said.
Officials ordered the rail operator Norfolk Southern to suspend shipments on Saturday to allow additional oversight measures. Some liquid and solid waste had already been taken to sites in Michigan and Texas.
