Paid water bill today. We are on Ohio River water. Asked about toxins from Palestine. Was told so far, the toxic water has not yet reached as far as Ashland, KY, which is in the tristate area of Ohio, WV and KY. WV said they will start taking water from an alternate river, if they need to. God bless West Virginia.

Here is Ashland's statement regarding their water quality:

When it does reach my area, which is downstream from Ashland, they said they have extra filtration they will apply. Hopefully, those kinds of measures will help, as millions are on Ohio River water. Personally don't drink tap water, but everything else (showers, laundry, dishwashing, etc.) is city water (of course). So this should mean Cinncinnati people on river water should not yet be affected.

Hope that is useful to someone. Buttigieg, whose job would encompass rail safety issues, and other gov officials, whose job it is to handle the toxicity problem, are useless, but we knew that. Today while perusing "news" they actually admitted Buttigieg was a diversity hire and is never around when you need him.
