Even though that has never happened, only speculated as possible by the same environmentalists crowd that push CO2 limits.

It contaminates groundwater when it comes back out the drill rig. All they have to do is run the drill water thru a filter or series of filters.

There is no regulation in Pennsylvania to process the water now. It will be an unfortunate, but necessary regulation and well worth the cost and clean up in the short and long term.
