People who live near East Palestine, Ohio, can now get $25,000 apiece for any injuries they sustained after last year's Norfolk Southern freight train derailmen
FILE - A black plume rises over East Palestine , Ohio , as a result of a controlled detonation of a portion of the derailed Norfolk Southern trains Monday, Feb. 6, 2023.
“We are not looking to over promise and under deliver in any way shape or form to the class,” Gomez said. The biggest property damage payments of $70,000 per household are limited to people who lived within two miles of the derailment. The payments get much smaller toward the outer edge of the 20-mile radius that's covered in the settlement.
Gomez said that the settlement is primarily designed to address only the short-term health impacts that residents have seen since the derailment because the courts won't allow them to try to cover future health problems. “In fact, we do not think that there is, support in that data for any significant increase in the number of additional cancers or other illnesses in East Palestine or the surrounding communities,” Gomez said.
