Hi ,
everyone should read the following article
But some locals say the draft
report�s analysis of water samples, which identified synthetic chemicals
consistent with natural gas drilling and hydraulic fracturing fluids, is
proof of what they suspected for years.
Mr. Hock said it should have come
as no surprise that the E.P.A.�s two monitoring wells showed high levels of
methane and benzene because they were drilled deep into a natural gas field.
For the last few years, a small group of farmers and landowners scattered
across this rural Wyoming basin have complained that their water wells have
been contaminated with chemicals from a controversial drilling technique
known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking.
�These are people that had good
water,� said John Fenton, a barrel-chested farmer and chairman of the
Pavillion Area Concerned Citizens group. �And it changed when there was this
rush to come in here and develop the area when they didn�t understand the
geology.�
Regards,
