Gov. Eric Holcomb says third party testing of toxic waste brought to a Putnam County landfill from Ohio does not contain any harmful levels of dioxins when compared to acceptable levels.
INDIANAPOLIS — Gov. Eric Holcomb says third party testing of toxic waste brought to a Putnam County landfill from Ohio does not contain any harmful levels of dioxins when compared to acceptable levels established by the EPA.
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."On Tuesday, the United States Environmental Protection Agency agreed to pause further shipments of hazardous waste.
Holcomb's comment about Heritage Environmental's permit was echoed by Congressman Jim Baird in a Tuesday interview with WRTV. The group doesn't believe adequate testing is being done in East Palestine, so they're voluntarily testing soil and water samples to get a better understanding of what toxic chemicals are present.The company says they offered to take the chemicals for disposal from the Environmental Protection Agency because of their ability to handle the waste.
The company assures residents in the area that they have strict federal guidelines in place and are capable to handle the loads.
