The Kepone chemical disaster occurred in 1975 in Hopewell, Virginia, when the pesticide Kepone was improperly disposed of by the Allied Chemical Corporation, contaminating the local environment and water supply. This toxic chemical caused severe health issues for workers and residents, leading to widespread fish kills and the pollution of the James River. The incident resulted in legal actions, significant cleanup efforts, and increased regulatory scrutiny over chemical manufacturing and waste disposal practices. Ultimately, it highlighted the dangers of industrial pollution and led to stricter environmental protections.
