Cincinnati cuts off drinking water from Ohio River due to East Palestine derailment contamination


It is "believed that low levels of butyl acrylate seeped into the Ohio River through a small creek about 300 miles north of Cincinnati," which prompted the water utility service to take the precaution.

The Ohio River's water intake for the city of Cincinnati will close ahead of incoming pollutants from the East Palestine train derailment in a move that the local water utility service says is "out of an abundance of caution."

According to Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW), a service provided by the city, Cincinnati's drinking water intake in the river will be closed sometime before the contamination is expected to reach that area of the river by early Sunday morning, a local ABC affiliate reported.

Water intakes are structures used for collecting water from surface waterways such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, and directing it to a water treatment plant where it will be made drinkable.

Fetterman recently made headlines as the first Senate Democrat to meet with Trump following the 2024 election. He defended his decision, emphasizing his role as a senator for all Pennsylvanians, not just those within his party. “If the president-elect invites me to talk, I’ll show up,” he said. “You don’t get to pick and choose who you work with in this job.” His remarks have drawn praise from some for their pragmatism but have raised eyebrows among Democratic colleagues who are wary of Trump’s divisive political history....
