EPA guidance from 2022 expressly prohibits open detonation, dump & burn operations
A June 7, 2022 guidance memo from the EPA declares that open detonation and open burning of chemicals must be an absolute last resort in an incident. EPA violated its own rules by allowing this.

EPA violated its own 2022 rule when it allowed the open dumping and burning of 125,000 gallons of vinyl chloride monomer.
By Eric F. Coppolino
EPA violated its own rules when it allowed the dumping and burning of 125,000 gallons of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) in East Palestine on Feb. 6, 2023. Public officials claim that doing this was preferable to risking an explosion — a potential scenario that itself has not been challenged thoroughly enough.
A June 7, 2022 guidance memo from EPA interpreting federal regulations and bans the open detonation/open burning of toxins.
Let me say this again. EPA violated its own rules and committed crimes when it authorized the dumping and open burning of 125,000 gallons of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM). My source is a former official in EPA’s enforcement division.
Public officials are so shameless that they have tried to pin responsibility for the dump and burn operation on the local fire chief. A proper recovery operation was initiated the night of the derailment, but was called off, according to a source close to the railroad industry.
Read the rules for yourself:
My source just followed up and wrote to me:
“I read the June 7, 2022 policy directive in more detail and am even more convinced that it is the key to demonstrating that the East Palestine disaster was an egregious environmental crime. I'm surprised that it was still on the EPA website a month ago when I discovered it. I wouldn't be surprised if it disappears as soon as they realize that the public knows of its existence. It really is damning evidence.”

EPA’s National Contingency Plan Gives it Jurisdiction
EPA’s Incident Command Structure (ICS) is a formal process under the National Contingency Plan, Section 106. This is the regulation that gives the EPA its actual power. The rule says if there is “endangerment” via release or threatened release of toxins into the environment that may endanger human health or the environment, then EPA has jurisdiction.
The EPA had been notified Friday night Feb. 3, 2023, and their Superfund command moved immediately. I am aware from sources close to the railroad industry (sorry if that sounds cryptic, I am protecting my source) that owners of tanker trucks were notified Friday night that they had to be avaialble to cart off the chemicals, but that operation was called off before it began.
Legal Affairs and News Timelines re East Palestine
We also have two chronologies related to East Palestine. One is a news timeline, the other is a legal affairs chronology. They are both on the same post. They have a long way to go, but we are off to a solid start.

Beta Version of 2021 ‘Vaccine’ News Timeline
We aggregate the news every day at Covid19 News, and are the daykeepers of the most comprehensive ‘covid’ chronology, which has had several updates this year.
Today I added our beta version of the 2021 chronology. In the introduction, I explain that this is a very differnet kind of document than the one you may have read, which spans 2006 through December 2020 (same link works for all).
What we have for 2021 is more of a news timeline than it is a primary source research document. And the topic has changed to a genocidal ‘vaccine’ campaign rather than a fabricated ‘pandemic’. In the 123-page 2021 timeline, we include many other issues that emerged about the fraudulent use of the PCR to detect a claimed virus.
The wreck of train 32N in East Palestine happened on day 1068 of our ‘covid’ coverage. We took up that issue full-time immediately, while one of our ace research teams keeps current with ‘covid’.
Thank you for your generosity and conscience.

EPA guidance from 2022 expressly prohibits open detonation, dump & burn operations
Problems with the standard narrative
— There has never been a dump and burn in railroad history, even in the decade prior to its being banned by 1980 regulations. There is always dump and remove, or decant (into tankers) and remove. These incidents happen every two weeks — the burn part is totally unprecedented and there is rarely a need to dump…
— Fully enclosed hazmat tanker truck driver recovery operation (entirely routine procedure when there are damaged tanker cars) was initiated Friday Feb. 3, and then called off within 24 hours (on Friday night or Saturday). Who called it off? I have this from two reliable sources
— Fire lines pulled from keeping tankers cool
— No samples of soot or wipe samples from inside the tanker cars — missing crucial data that would reveal the true nature of the incident
— Point source soot samples are also missing
— Decision to breach, dump and burn was totally irrational and nobody understands it. EPA was involved.
— No state or federal emergencies declared, depriving governments of emergency powers and agencies of certain kinds of authority (we now from “covid” how much power a state of emergency grants; in this case, that was never done).
— Analysis of samples from PTRMS lab (high-end mobile chemistry analysis lab) are bogged at Carnegie Mellon, in custody of Albert Presto, who is not releasing them.
— Pressure release valves (PRVs) were working fine, per NTSB report; the tanker cars were not in jeopardy. Other reports say the VCM was not in jeopardy of exploding and besides, they can easily decanter it into tanker trucks as is done regularly.
— Five dead CTEH guys in airplane crash (eyewitnesses to point source sampling), who were at the East Palestine scene taking samples on behalf of the railroad and took samples…they died en route to the next mission.
— People are still sick in Palestine a way they should not be based on every other incident my source has worked on for 30 years. The other explanations are not very plausible, such as offgassing from stream aeration.
— Chemicals that are currently banned from production by federal law are DDT, PCBs, PBDEs, some CFCs, all chemical warfare agents and chemicals banned from production by voluntary agreement with chemical industry are PFOS and PFOA.
This article broke open the story — a source came forward — there is a LOT more here...the no dump rule is actually 1980, the 2022 memo clarifies military operations primarily.
