This record archives public records disclosed in response to a Freedom of Information / public records request concerning the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment (February 2023). It contains two agency lists: (1) a list of responding organizations and (2) a Unified Command / incident management agency list.
The Firefighter Cancer Presumptive Law dataset provides a comprehensive, jurisdiction‑level reference of firefighter cancer presumption laws and related benefit programs across all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories. It catalogs statutory presumption systems, hybrid programs, cancer‑specific benefit structures, and eligibility frameworks as they existed on February 7, 2026, creating a unified national snapshot of how firefighter occupational cancer is recognized and compensated within diverse legal systems.
This dataset documents known line‑of‑duty deaths involving industrial, private‑sector, and facility‑based firefighters in the United States, creating a consolidated national reference for a population that is frequently excluded from firefighter fatality research and statutory analyses.
Unlike traditional firefighter fatality datasets that focus primarily on municipal or public‑sector fire departments, this dataset centers on industrial fire brigades, private fire departments, employer‑based emergency response teams, and facility firefighters operating in refineries, manufacturing plants, mines, utilities, chemical facilities, and other industrial environments.
This dataset documents verified off-site emergency responses by industrial fire departments in support of municipal or regional emergency operations. Each entry represents a documented incident in which an industrial fire brigade or industrial emergency response organization assisted a public fire department outside of its primary facility or jurisdiction.
