Wastewater from Ohio derailment has moved through Harris County for more than a week, Hidalgo says
The contaminated firefighting water being transported from the East Palestine, Ohio, train crash and chemical spill to Harris County has been moving through the area for more than a week, apparently without knowledge of public officials, County Judge Lina Hidalgo said Thursday night.
In a late night, live-streamed news conference, Hidalgo said that Texas Molecular, the Deer Park company receiving the wastewater with plans to clean it and dispose of it in injection wells, was receiving as many as 30 trucks per day carrying the waste and had already received about half a million gallons of water since last week.
