News Wrap: Hurricane Harvey caused chemical spill, says EPA

Season 2017

The EPA warned that Hurricane Harvey caused a potentially dangerous chemical spill.

In our News Wrap Friday, the EPA warned that Hurricane Harvey caused a potentially dangerous chemical spill from a Houston-area Superfund site. The EPA detected high levels of dioxins in the San Jacinto River, which are linked to cancer and birth defects. Also, a 12th person has died in the wake of Hurricane Irma after being taken from a sweltering nursing home in South Florida.
