Chemicals from the derailed cars and firefighting foam seeped into creeks and rivers near the village, with some eventually ending up in the Ohio River.
The federal government filed a lawsuit against railroad Norfolk Southern over environmental damage caused by a trainthat spilled hazardous chemicals into nearby creeks and rivers.
The derailment in early February led to the evacuation of half of the 5,000 residents of East Palestine when responders intentionally burned toxic chemicals in some of the derailed cars to prevent an uncontrolled explosion. New drone video from the East Palestine, Ohio train crash site shows the progress being made in the cleanup following the derailment two-weeks ago today
