Farrell Deposition Disputed

A deposition by ex-Freedom Industries executive Dennis Farrell says Eastman Chemical never told him its chemical could corrode tanks. Farrell said he called to warn West Virginia American Water to close its water pump before chemicals entered the plant. The company didn’t. There’s a lawsuit pending, filed by businesses and residents impacted by the water crisis. The water company disputes Farrell’s deposition. Eastman doesn’t think the chemical corroded the tank. Farrell and ex-Freedom President Gary Southern have guilty plea hearings this week.
