And just so we are clear… the event in West Virginia was a leak of… not waste… but a stored, useable chemical. 4-Methylcyclohexane Methanol is NOT listed in the DOT Emergency Response Guide (ERG) or the NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) Guide. Try to download a MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for it. 4-Methylcyclohexane Methanol is NOT listed in the EPA’s screening level tables. It is an agent used to wash coal. With respect to response, the response is covered in the catchall ERG Guide 128... wash it away... dilution is the solution. (Martini, check my work please)
IN SHORT - THE SPILL WAS A MEDIA EVENT.
I am certain it was a) inconvenient, b) unpleasant, and c) mildly unhealthy… but so is gasoline and more gasoline is spilled every day than the 4-Methylcyclohexane Methanol. Thanks to the circling sharks (lawyers) the hoopla will result in the culpable company going out of business
You and every affected citizen of the spill community are at more risk from the health effects (and security risks) of ObamaCare. The spill is a convenient media diversion.
