We have only seen the tip of the iceberg in the West Virginia riverbank tank leak. Dr. Elizabeth Brown has been treating people who suffered burns, rashes and irritated eyes after a riverbank storage tank ruptured and spilled thousands of gallons of a coal acleaning chemical into the river. Dr. Brown told the media that we have only seen the tip of the iceberg.

When the tap water started to flow again in parts of West Virginia’s Kanawha Valley on Monday, some of Dr. Elizabeth Brown’s patients began to trickle into her office with some peculiar symptoms.

“I started seeing people in the afternoon who came in with skin rashes af ter trying to wash their hands, rashes all over their body after showering, irritated eyes, some nausea and fatigue, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg….,” READMORE

No health studies have ever been conducted on the chemical, 4-methylcyclohexane methanol (MCHM), which is used to wash coal and get it ready for market.

Aacording to CNN: Little is known about the safety implications for 4-methylcyclohexane methanol, according to the state’s Poison Control director Dr. Elizabeth Scharman because it hasn’t been adequately studied.

We don’t know if it is harmful to babies in the womb, or causes long term genetic and health problems. We don’t know if it causes cancer, or long term organ damaage. We don’t know what we don’t know, and state and local authorities have done nothing to clue us in.



We also don’t know what concentrations are dangerous. Some have said that everything will be OK down stream because by the time the chemical gets to the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, it will be so dilute that it won’t matter.

WE DON’T KNOW THAT. We don’t know that because we don’t know the concentrations needed to cause problems to human health.



We also do not know if it will combine with chemicals already in the river to create an even more dangerous chemical. According to the United States Geological Survey:

When used for drinking water, the amounts of many of the contaminants can be eliminated or reduced by conventional or advanced treatments at water treatment facilities. However, drinking-water standards have not been established for the individual compounds or for the mixtures found, so the potential human-health risk of chemicals that may be present in drinking water after treatment is not known.

So, people need to protect themselves in the event of a chemical spill intto their water supply, because water filtration plants DO NOT REMOVE ALL CONTAMINANTS.

It is important to keep in mind that no individual water treatment device removes every contaminant from drinking water. Depending on the severity of contamination, it may be necessary to replace your source of drinking water by developing an alternative water supply or purchasing bottled water. Some of these options can be costly and inconvenient, so it is important to have your water tested regularly and remain informed of community water quality issues and decisions. For more information about drinking water treatment methods and devices, also see the Drinking Water Treatment page.

Now, how is this stuff measured? Like this: “One ppb equals one drop of water mixed in a competition-size swimming pool One ppm is comparable to one drop of gasoline in a tank full of gas in a full-size car. One ppm is 1000 times higher than one ppb”. SOURCE
