(THE EPOCH TIMES) – Norfolk Southern CEO Alan Shaw made an ambiguous promise Thursday to do “what’s right” for East Palestine, Ohio, residents after one of his rail company’s trains derailed there last month, releasing toxic chemicals into the environment.

“We’re committed to doing what’s right for the folks of East Palestine and the community,” Shaw assured Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) at a hearing of the Environment and Public Works Committee that was devoted to the incident.

“I told my team, ‘We are going to do more than less with the environmental cleanup, and we’re going to do more than less with the citizens of East Palestine,’” Shaw added.
