Norfolk Southern CEO to Bring Financial Aid, Promises, and Apologies to Senate HearingSimon Kent 9 Mar 2023
Norfolk Southern CEO Alan Shaw will appear before a Senate hearing Thursday bearing an apology and a promise to send millions of dollars to the village of East Palestine, Ohio, torn apart by a fiery derailment last month.
“I am deeply sorry for the impact this derailment has had on the people of East Palestine and surrounding communities, and I am determined to make it right,” Shaw says in prepared remarks seen by the Associated Press and released ahead of the first hearing by the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works on the Feb. 3 derailment of a Norfolk Southern-operated train in Ohio.
Shaw promises the railroad will do “the right thing” with a $20 million commitment to help the devastated community recover, the outlet details.
