NATURAL GAS FRACKING SPILL/BLOWOUT IN PA

Lovely.

Just lovely.

Expect more of this.

frack fracking

when in the hell are we gonna start regulating this shit? the congress allowed fracking to be done without ANY type of regulation and they don't even have to disclose the type and amount of toxins in their fracking fluid. this is just gonna multiply unless they crack down on this shit now. how much of these leaks of fracking fluids are polluting streams, rivers, and underground aquifers? how much is leaking frack fluid behind some of the unexplained fish kills like the one in Arkansas near Ozark in the Ar river? Hmmmmm

Our governor in PA is in bed with the natural gas companies. We won't have regs here in the next 4 years at least unless the Feds do something.

If we started getting earthquakes here like in Arkansas we'd be in deep shit. This place is on stilts from all the old coal mines.

Have the drinking water wells been fouled in the area for a while? -

I thought I heard that

Yes, this is where people can light their faucets on fire.



Here's an updated story from a different source.

<snip>

Bradford County's director of public safety said a Chesapeake well went out of control late Tuesday night. That means the well blew near the surface, spilling thousands and thousands of gallons of frack fluid over containment walls, through fields, personal property and farms, even where cattle continue to graze.

DEP is taking ground water and stream samples to determine the extent of the spill.

Officials said fluids from the well have, in fact, contaminated Towanda Creek which feeds into the Susquehanna River.

Thanks OP

I have family in Sayre / Athens.

I guess as long as they don't drink any water forever ...

WTF.....are you some kind of Socialist commie dirt bag or what. This is America and we don't need no government interfering with making the monies.....are you not paying attention to all the calls for less government.

Soon we can all glow together.

I hope it doesn't affect anybody seriously. Looks like it was a bit south of Sayre, so your family should not be affected. It's the people downstream who need to keep an eye on it.

Hey, I went High School with him !!!

Not until our 'dearly beloved Congress' gets its collective nose off the solvent natural gas snuffing high and revamps both the EPA's Clean Act and Clean Water acts.

I knew something was really fubar'd about our 'dear leaders' and their screwed up thought processes.. its like they are intoxicated.. now I really they have become totally brain dead from sniffing N.G. Fracking fumes.

I say let them frack until everything is destroyed. It is a well known fact that human beings only learn the hard way.

grrrr. This is really pissing me the hell off. We need to say "No Frackin' Way!" I just wrote a blog post about it. [ [link to www.highwaterfilters.com]
