National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chair Jennifer Homendy Says Buttigieg Is Spreading 'Misinformation' About Palestine, Oh Derailment

[easyt65]

Buttigieg's mishandling of this disaster in Palestine, Oh was further highlighted and made worse by his being publicly called out / rebuked by the NTSB Chair for 'SPREADING MISINFORMATION' in his attempt to blame former Presidrnt Trump .



"After the woefully inadequate Transportation secretary found a way to blame Trump for the catastrophic train derailment, he got pushback from an unexpected quarter: National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chair Jennifer Homendy, who branded Buttigieg’s politically opportunistic claims “misinformation.”

NTSB Chair Homendy went on:

'On Thursday, Homendy tweeted that “anyone speculating about what happened, didn’t happen, or should’ve happened is misleading a suffering community – PLEASE STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION.



For example… Some are saying the ECP (electronically controlled pneumatic) brake rule, if implemented, would’ve prevented this derailment. FALSE – here’s why… The ECP braking rule would’ve applied ONLY to HIGH HAZARD FLAMMABLE TRAINS. The train that derailed in East Palestine was a MIXED FREIGHT TRAIN containing only 3 placarded Class 3 flammable liquids cars.

This means even if the rule had gone into effect, this train wouldn’t have had ECP brakes.”

Booty-Judge is a figure-head using his title to further the neo-Marxist revolution in this country. He does not know shit about national transportation issues.

Train derailments must always happen in frequent sets. Sure. Uh huh . . .

Train derailments must always happen in frequent sets. Sure. Uh huh . . .

I am very skeptical of statements / declarations that include words / phrasing like 'wIll ALWAYS', 'must', etc...

What does Buttigieg being gay have anything to do with the train derailment???

And PJMedia isn't a credible source for ANYTHING. But you knew that.

If they kick him out right away, there still may be time for him to catch up to Sam Brinton.

I dunno. He was pretty good at jumping out of a gas guzzling SUV onto his "green" friendly bicycle for a photo op.

Does that count?

HOW MUCH YOU WANNA BET MarcATL avoids this thread.

Good thing the MTSB is an independent agency — independent of the DOT.

Otherwise those comments would be fireable.

Levels of carcinogenic chemical near Ohio derailment site ​

far above safe limit​

EPA scientists assessed a dioxin cancer risks threshold in 2010, but a federal cleanup is only triggered at far higher levels​

Levels of carcinogenic chemical near Ohio derailment site far above safe limit

EPA scientists assessed dioxin cancer risks in 2010, but the federal cleanup threshold is still far below those recommendations

www.theguardian.com

17 Mar 2023 ~~ By Tom Perkins

Newly released data shows soil in the Ohio town of East Palestine – scene of a recent catastrophic train crash and chemical spill – contains dioxin levels hundreds of times greater than the exposure threshold above which Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) scientists in 2010 found poses cancer risks.
The EPA at the time proposed lowering the cleanup threshold to reflect the science around the highly toxic chemical, but the Obama administration killed the rules, and the higher federal action threshold remains in place.
~Snip~
The data probably confirms fears that the controlled burn of vinyl chloride in the days after the train wreck in the town created dioxin and dispersed it throughout the area, experts say, though they stressed the new data is of limited value because only two soil samples were checked.
The train crash in East Palestine and its toxic aftermath has become a major issue in the US with local and activists decrying a lack of action by both the government and the train operator, Norfolk Southern. The state of Ohio has now sued the rail giant over the derailment, calling it one of a “long string” of incidents involving the company.
~Snip~
EPA scientists in 2010 put the cancer risk threshold for dioxins in residential soil at 3.7 ppt, and the agency recommended lowering the cleanup trigger to 72 ppt.
“When you run the numbers and do your best state-of-the-art risk calculations, that’s the number you get for the cancer risk,” said Stephen Lester, a toxicologist who has researched dioxins for 40 years and is science director for the Center for Health, Environment and Justice. “That’s why dioxins are described as one of the most toxic chemicals ever created.”
The rules were ultimately killed ”for political reasons”, Lester said. Exposure to that level of dioxin is probably widespread, and making the change would create fallout that would be extremely difficult for the government to manage, he added.


Commentary:
So, who’s surprised at the results?
The townspeople are white - don’t have money for Political donations - so No One in D.C. Cares
Joey Xi Bai Dung and is Merry Maoist appointees are responsible for tis tragedy. No one else.
They created this American Chernobyl, in Ohio and PA, thru their monumental incompetent stupidity, or was it deliberate? This kind of occurrences are happening beyond what can be considered “mistakes”. Some people need hanging, with real nooses.
