Today, in the wake of Congress’ first hearing on the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Beyond Petrochemicals campaign released new data showing similar disasters are happening all over the United States.

Earth MRI is a partnership between the USGS and state geological surveys across America to modernize our understanding of the Nation’s fundamental geologic framework and knowledge of mineral resources. 

The ingredients of CCA are the heavy metals copper, chromium and arsenic. They don’t decompose and can’t be destroyed like organic compounds by incineration.

Less than two weeks after train cars filled with hazardous chemicals derailed in Ohio, a truck carrying nitric acid crashed on a major highway outside Tucson, Arizona.

Deleting a site from the NPL happens when cleanup of the contamination is complete and allows residents to move forward in reusing and redeveloping the land.

The colloidal activated carbon (CAC) technologies developed by REGENESIS, PetroFix and PlumeStop, are often paired with biostimulating electron acceptors or donors to destroy adsorbed contaminants.

In the 1990s, the former paper mill site was abandoned and fell into disrepair.

The study's findings indicate CAC remedies can be effective at eliminating PFAS exposure risk for decades or longer.

On Tuesday, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine gave an update on the Norfolk Southern 50-car train derailment that took place Feb. 3 in East Palestine, Ohio, and the subsequent controlled burn of toxic chemicals.

As of February 10, 2023, all known illegal mines on Sangihe Island are no longer operating. However, they leave behind contaminated worksites and no remediation resources.
