A temporary shelter-in-place order was lifted early Sunday morning after officials determined there was no risk to public health, officials said.
There are no signs of a spill after a Norfolk Southern train derailment in Springfield, Ohio, officials said.Crews found no signs of a spill after a Norfolk Southern freight train derailed in west central Ohio Saturday afternoon, prompting a temporary shelter-in-place order for nearby residents -- just one month after the company's toxic train wreck on the other side of the state in East Palestine.
Two of the derailed tankers contained residual amounts of diesel exhaust fluid, another two contained polyacrylamide water solution and four were carrying with non-hazardous materials, according to Mangle.Officials determined the derailment was not in an area with a protected water source, "meaning there is no risk of public water system or private wells this time," Mangle added.
"No hazardous materials are involved ... Our teams are enroute to the site to begin cleanup operations," the Norfolk Southern spokesperson said earlier Saturday. US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said earlier that he has been informed of the derailment, spoke with Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and is sending Federal Railroad Administration officials to the scene.
