Did You Smell Something Funky? Tell the DEC if You Did

February 21, 2023 by Jeff Lewis

The DEC is looking into an unknown smell wafting through the Hudson Valley that social media is concerned is coming from the train wreckage in East Palestine, Ohio from earlier this month. Rockland County Executive Ed Day says most of the odor has been observed in Orange County…

While some have reported a strange chemical-like smell others have indicated it’s more “sweet smelling,” like perfume. The DEC says there’s no imminent public health or environmental threat based on the initial air readings they have taken. If you smell something a little off, and you’re concerned, call the New York State spill hotline at 1-800-457-7362 and DEC’s Region 3 Office: 845-256-3000.
