Ohio train derailment…..Could it affect Indiana’s water source?
Waterways along the Ohio River could be contaminated with hazardous materials following the train derailment. We know the derailment led to the release of chemicals, one of which was vinyl chloride. We here at HML have the capability to test for vinyl chloride. Please contact our knowledgeable staff for any questions or concerns.

Millions of American's exposed to elevated nitrate levels in drinking water.
More than 5.6 million Americans are potentially exposed to nitrate in drinking water at levels that could cause health problems, according to a new study.
HML is now CDC ELITE Certified for the detection of Legionella
The bacterium Legionella can cause a serious type of pneumonia called LD in persons at risk. Those at risk include persons who are at least 50 years old, smokers, or those with underlying medical conditions such as chronic lung disease or immunosuppression. Outbreaks have been linked to poorly maintained water systems in buildings with large or complex water systems including hospitals and long-term care facilities. Transmission can occur via aerosols from devices such as showerheads, cooling towers, hot tubs, and decorative fountains.
Facilities must develop and adhere to policies and procedures that inhibit microbial growth in building water systems that reduce the risk of growth and spread of legionella and other opportunistic pathogens in water.
