The CEO of Norfolk Southern on Tuesday will tell the Senate in a hearing that he’s “deeply sorry” for the impact of last month’s train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio.
“I am deeply sorry for the impact this derailment has had on the people of East Palestine and surrounding communities, and I am determined to make it right,” rail CEO Alan Shaw said in a statement prepared ahead of the hearing.
On Feb. 3, a Norfolk Southern train carrying the toxic chemical vinyl chloride derailed in East Palestine, leaking chemicals into the local land and water.
