Important Quotes:
“It seems to me they put profit above safety” -Mayor Witt

“[Councilman Fred Banker] said he personally would suspect what the motives of Chem-Dyne officials are and added that, ‘I strongly object to our city becoming a dumping ground for anybody’s chemicals.’”

“City Manager Jack Kirsch, questioned about the nature of the company, admitted he has ‘no knowledge’ of what waste products it handles or what waste processing equipment is has. ‘So therefore, the only thing they could do in Hamilton is ship them (chemicals) in and ship them out.’”
