Indianapolis, IN — Gov. Eric Holcomb has released the third-party test results from the hazardous waste brought into Indiana from the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment.
Results conducted last weekend on materials shipped to a Putnam County landfill indicate the waste does not contain dangerous levels of cancer-causing dioxins.
“These results demonstrate that the site operator is lawfully permitted to dispose of that material at its site. We have informed the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and the site operator of these testing results,” Holcomb said.
“We will have Pace Labs continue to test samples of any future loads that may arrive in Indiana from East Palestine to confirm that none of the material contains harmful levels of dioxins,” he added.
