Norfolk Southern said it has reached a $600 million settlement to resolve all class action claims made by residents who live within a 20-mile radius of last year's derailment site in East Palestine, Ohio. The settlement will need the approval of a court before being finalized. A judge will also help decide how the settlement should be divided.
Residents have raised concerns that the derailment has caused long-term health effects and reduced property values, among other impacts. There were no direct fatalities from the derailment, but despite assurances from officials, there are lingering concerns over the long-term impacts of vinyl chloride and other chemicals that were released into the atmosphere.
