I l...Thank you for digging up all this information. I live in Lafayette, Louisiana, where our local economy heavily depends upon the oil and gas industry. Therefore, I wasn't surprised to read an article condemning EPA regulation of hydraulic fracturing. Article found here:<br /><br />http://www.theind.com/oil-a-gas/5978-leave-this-one-to-the-states<br /><br />The author basically tries to scare the reader into agreeing with him (in his opposition to regulation) with the usual "it'll destroy our economy!" rhetoric. And I'm pretty sure he knows more about the contamination issue than he proclaims, else he wouldn't have said "If hydraulic fracturing were regualted, the president and liberals in Congress could easily shut down the development of natural gas around the country." <br /><br />Sorry to fill up your comment section with quotes... My intention was to thank you for providing links to some solid data with which to dispute those that claim this process hasn't caused one single incident of contamination. <br /><br />Keep up the good work!<br />Melissa in Lafayette, LAmelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15797349870997313327noreply@blogger.com
