Aquifer Contamination-Part 1
Dear Shalers,
I'm becoming more & more concerned about possible aquifer contamination, and wondered if we ought to be looking very carefully at what's going on.
N.Y.State has put an 18 month hold on the fracing process as it reviews the potential impact on its water resources/aquifer. Penn. has allowed the process to go on unchecked. Are we missing something here? Should we be more particular about how our leases are drafted to insure that we have some recourse should contamination appear? I'm all for folks to get money/royalties at whatever they can negotiate-I'm just leery of not being able to get a drink of clean water from my own well.
