Is there a temporary water treatment system being installed on the site?

Norfolk Southern has brought in water treatment equipment and made a request to EPA and Ohio EPA to approve a plan for on-site treatment of water that came into contact with contaminated areas. Currently, this water is treated as hazardous waste because it has come into contact with site contamination. The on-site treatment of this water would make it non-hazardous so that it could be potentially disposed of at more facilities and removed from the site more
safely and efficiently. Also, on-site treatment would reduce the number of water trucks and storage tanks, consolidating water management into one primary
area and reducing truck traffic. EPA and Ohio EPA are currently reviewing the company’s proposal.
