Providing an update in Columbus on Tuesday, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said he learned today that the train was not considered a “high hazardous material train,” which allegedly meant that the railroad was not required to notify anyone in Ohio about what was in the railcars coming to the state. “Frankly, if this is true and I’m told it’s true, this is absurd. And we need to look at this and Congress needs to take a look at how these things are handled,” DeWine said.
