Abstract
This case study explores the actions taken by the Pennsylvania Department of Health to address public health concerns related to the Norfolk Southern train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. Due to the location of the train derailment on the Ohio-Pennsylvania border, the case demonstrates the inherent challenges of addressing disasters that occur across state lines. Furthermore, the train derailment was regarded as an environmental disaster rather than a public health emergency, further complicating response efforts.
