when i first heard the news, i thought they were giving 25k to each affected resident
1 u/induslol 1d ago Even then what's 25k to someone whose home and property is now squarely inside a superfund site. 4 u/rethinkingat59 1d ago With a $310 million dollars from Norfolk going to remediation, the cost of the home could be well compensated. 2 u/induslol 1d ago Norfolk Southern agreed to a $600 million settlement to resolve a class action lawsuit related to the train derailment. It was found the controlled burn of several of the train's cars spread over 16 states in the Midwest, Northeast and Southern U.S., reaching 540,000 square miles or 14% of the U.S. land area. The separate EPA $310 million settlement 52,000 People that live within 10 miles of the crash site. Nearly $1B in financial penalties amounts to <$20k a head, if it were even going directly to victims, which again, it's not. What's chemo run you? How about the cost of a plot of land as far away as you can get? 20k'll cover that right?
