Ohio chitima derailment inomutsa kutya pakati pevagari vedhorobha diki nezve chepfu

Ohio chitima dederailment inotakura vinyl chloride inosimudza kusvibiswa uye kunetseka kwehutano

Mazuva gumi nemaviri chitima chakatakura mishonga ine muchetura chaparara mutaundi diki reOhio kuEast Palestine, vagari vari kunetseka vachiri kuda mhinduro.

"Zvinoshamisa izvozvi," akadaro James Figley, anogara zvinhambwe zvishoma kubva pachiitiko ichi. "Dhorobha rose raita mhirizhonga."

Figley ane makore makumi matanhatu nematatu mugadziri wemifananidzo. Manheru emusi wa3 Kukadzi, akanga akagara pasofa paakangoerekana anzwa simbi yaityisa uye yairwadza. Iye nemudzimai wake vakapinda mumotokari kuti vatarise uye vakaona chiitiko chegehena..

"Paive nekuputika kwakatevedzana kwakaenderera mberi uye kunhuhwirira kwakawedzera kutyisa," Figley akadaro.

"Wakambopisa purasitiki kuseri kwemba kwako uye (kwaiva) nehutsi hutema? Ndizvo," akadaro. "Yanga iri nhema, itema chose. Waigona kuona kuti kunhuwa kwemakemikari. Yakakupisa maziso. Kana wakatarisana nemhepo, zvinogona kuipa chaizvo."

Chiitiko ichi chakakonzera moto uyo wakavhundutsa vagari vaigara munzvimbo dziri kure.

Utsi hwakakwira kubva muchitima chekutakura zvinhu chakaparara chakatakura makemikari ane ngozi muEast Palestine, Ohio.

Kwapera mazuva, hutsi hune muchetura hwakaoneka pamusoro peguta sezvo vakuru vakuru vakatsvanzvadzira kupisa kemikari ine ngozi inonzi vinyl chloride isati yaputika.

Mumazuva mashoma akatevera, hove dzakafa dzakaoneka murukova. Vakuru vakuru gare gare vakasimbisa kuti nhamba yacho yakasvika muzviuru. Vagari vavakidzani vakaudza vezvenhau veko kuti huku dzavo dzakangoerekana dzafa, makava akavhunduka uye dzimwe mhuka dzinovaraidza dzikarwara. Vagari vaichema-chema nemusoro, maziso ari kupisa nehuro.

Gavhuna weOhio, VaMike DeWine, vakataura neChitatu kuti kunyange hazvo mhepo yemuguta iri yakachengeteka, vagari vari pedyo nenzvimbo yaraswa muchetura vanofanira kunwa mvura yemubhodhoro senzira yekuzvidzivirira. Vakuru vehurumende nevehurumende vakavimbisa vagari kuti vari kubvisa ivhu rakasvibiswa kubva panzvimbo iyi uye kuti mhepo neyemanisipala yemvura yainge yadzokera kune yakajairika.

Kusiyana kukuru pakati pezvatiri kuudzwa nevamwe vagari uye zvipikirwa zvinoramba zvichiburitswa nevakuru zvakakonzera mhirizhonga uye kutya kumabvazuva kwePalestine. Zvichakadaro, nyanzvi dzezvakatipoteredza nezvehutano dzakamutsa mibvunzo yekuti saiti iyi yakachengeteka here. Vamwe vashandisi vepasocial media vakati kunyange hazvo vakuru vehurumende vachigara vachizivisa nezvemamiriro ezvinhu uye vachiratidza kutsamwira kambani yechitima, vakuru vakuru vanga vasingaudze vagari chokwadi.

Vamwe vagari veko vakagamuchira kutarisirwa kwakawedzerwa. "Pane zvakawanda zvatisingazive," Figley akadaro.

Vakuru veUS vanofungidzira kuti hove 3,500 kubva kumarudzi gumi nemaviri akasiyana dzakafa munzizi dziri pedyo nekuda kwekuparara..

Vakuru vakapa mamwe mashoko pamusoro peKukadzi 3 kubuda kweNorfolk Southern chitima munzira kuenda kuPennsylvania.

DeWine akataura pamusangano wevatori venhau neChipiri kuti chitima chacho chaive nemotokari dzinosvika zana nemakumi mashanu, uye makumi mashanu dzadzo dzakasiya nzira. Dzinenge gumi dzadzo dzaiva nezvinhu zvinogona kuita chepfu.

National Transportation Safety Board haisati yaziva kuti chii chaikonzera kuparara kwenzira, asi bazi iri rakati zvinogona kunge zvine chekuita nenyaya yemuchina neimwe yeaxle.

Zvinhu zvinotakurwa nezvitima zvinosanganisira vinyl chloride, gasi risina ruvara uye rinokuvadza rinoshandiswa mukugadzirwa kwePVC plastiki uye zvigadzirwa zvevinyl.

Vinyl chloride zvakare icarcinogen. Kunyanya kutarisana nekemikari kunogona kukonzera dzungu, kukotsira uye misoro, nepo kuratidzwa kwenguva refu kunogona kukonzera kukuvara kwechiropa uye isingawanzowanikwi yekenza yechiropa.

Musi waKukadzi 6, mushure mekubuda munzvimbo yepedyo, vakuru vakuru vakapisa zvakadzora zvevinyl chloride. DeWine akati nyanzvi dzemubatanidzwa, dzenyika uye njanji dzakagumisa kuti dzaive dzakachengeteka pane kurega zvinhu zvichiputika uye kutumira marara achibhururuka neguta, izvo zvaakadaidza kuti kushomeka kwehuipi huviri.

Kupisa kwaidzorwa kwakaburitsa utsi hweapocalyptic kumabvazuva kwePalestine. Mifananidzo iyi yakafambiswa zvakanyanya pasocial media, nevaverengi vakawanda vakakatyamadzwa vachiienzanisa nebhaisikopo renjodzi.

Mazuva akati gare gare, Gavhuna DeWine, Gavhuna wePennsylvania, Josh Shapiro naNorfolk Southern vakazivisa kuti kupisa kwacho kwabudirira uye vagari vakabvumidzwa kudzoka kana vakuru vakuru vaona kuti kwakachengeteka.

"Kwatiri, pavakati yagadziriswa, takafunga kuti tinogona kudzoka," akadaro mugari wekuEast Palestine, John Myers, anogara nemhuri yake muimba iri pedyo nenzvimbo yakarasika.

Akataura kuti haana kusangana nemigumisiro yakaipa. "Mhepo inonhuwa semazuva ese," akadaro.

NeChipiri, US Environmental Protection Agency yakati haisati yaona huwandu hwakakosha hwezvinhu zvinokuvadza mumhepo. Bazi iri rati raongorora dzimba dzinoda kusvika mazana mana kusvika pari zvino uye hapana mishonga yaonekwa, asi riri kuenderera mberi nekuongorora dzimwe dzimba munzvimbo iyi pamwe nekuongorora mamiriro emhepo.

Mushure metsaona, US Environmental Protection Agency yakawana maronda emakemikari mumasampuli emvura ari pedyo, kusanganisira Ohio River. Sangano iri rinoti mvura ine utachiona yapinda mumadhamu emvura. Vakuru veOhio vakati vaizoedza mvura yevagari kana kuchera matsime matsva kana zvichidikanwa.

NeChitatu, iyo Ohio Environmental Protection Agency yakavimbisa vagari kuti matsime ari munzvimbo yemvura system akaedzwa asina makemikari kubva mukuparara uye kuti mvura yemunisiparati yakachengeteka kunwa.

Kunyanya kusavimba nekukahadzika

Vagari vanga vachinetsekana nekukanganisa kwaungaite makemikari ane chepfu pahutano hwavo. (Pamufananidzo pano pane mufananidzo wechiratidzo kunze kwebhizinesi muEast Palestine iyo inoti "Nyengeterera East Palestine uye ramangwana redu.")

Kune vamwe, mifananidzo inokatyamadza yehutsi hunokachidza yairatidza kusawirirana nedanho revakuru rehurumende rakanga richangobva kubuda richienda kumabvazuva kwePalestine.

Vashandisi vesocial media paTwitter neTikTok kunyanya vanga vachitevera mishumo yemhuka dzakakuvara uye mifananidzo yekupisa vinyl chloride. Vari kuda mhinduro dzakawanda kubva kuvakuru vakuru.

Mushure mekunge vanhu vatumira mavhidhiyo ehove dzakafa kumasocial media, vakuru vakuru vakabvuma kuti chiitiko ichi chaive chaicho. Dhipatimendi reOhio reZviwanikwa rakati hove dzinosvika zviuru zvitatu nemazana mashanu emhando gumi nembiri dzakafa murukova runosvika mamaira 7.5 kumaodzanyemba kweEast Palestine.

Nekudaro, vakuru vakuru vakati havasati vawana mishumo yekuparara kana kuputika kwemakemikari zvichikonzera kufa kwezvipfuyo kana dzimwe mhuka dzepavhu.

Anopfuura vhiki mushure mekunge makemikari apisa, vagari vemunharaunda vakanyunyuta nemusoro uye kusvotwa, maererano neThe Washington Post, The New Republic uye vezvenhau veko.

Nyanzvi munyaya dzezvemamiriro ekunze dzakaudza BBC kuti dziri kushushikana nedanho rehurumende rekubvumidza vanhu kudzokera kumabvazuva kwePalestine munguva pfupi yakaitika tsaona uye kutsva kwakadzora.

 "Zviripachena vatongi vehurumende uye vemunharaunda vari kupa vanhu chiedza chegirini kuti vaende kumba nekukurumidza," akadaro David Masur, director director wePenn Environment Research & Policy Center.

“Zvinounza kusavimba nekusatenda kukuru pakati peveruzhinji pamusoro pekuvimbika kwemasangano aya, uye idambudziko,” akadaro.

Pamusoro pevinyl chloride, zvimwe zvinhu zvinoverengeka muzvitima zvinogona kuumba makomisheni ane njodzi kana apiswa, senge dioxins, akadaro Peter DeCarlo, purofesa paJohns Hopkins University anodzidza kusvibiswa kwemhepo.

"Semakemikari wemuchadenga, ichi chinhu chandinoda chaizvo kudzivirira." Akawedzera kuti anotarisira kuti dhipatimendi rekuchengetedza kwezvakatipoteredza richaburitsa data rakadzama pamusoro pemhando yemhepo.

Vagari vekuEast Palestine vakamhan'ara nyaya dzinenge ina dzekirasi-chiito vachipokana neNorfolk Southern Railroad, vachiti vakaoneswa zvinhu zvine muchetura uye vakatambura "kushungurudzika kwakanyanya" nekuda kwekuparara.

"Vazhinji vevatengi vedu vari kunyatsofunga nezve ... pamwe kubuda munzvimbo iyi," Hunter Miller akadaro. Ndiye gweta rinomiririra vagari vekuEast Palestine mukirasi yekuita mhosva vachipokana nekambani yechitima.

"Iyi inofanira kunge iri nzvimbo yavo yakachengeteka uye nzvimbo yavo inofadza, imba yavo," Miller akadaro. "Ikozvino vanonzwa sekunge imba yavo yakapinzwa uye havasisina chokwadi kuti inzvimbo yakachengetedzeka."

NeChipiri, mutori wenhau akabvunza DeWine kana iye pachake aizonzwa akachengeteka kudzoka kumba kana aigara kuEast Palestine.

"Ini ndichave ndakasvinura uye ndine hanya," DeWine akadaro. "Asi ndinofunga ndingadzokera kumba kwangu."
