Fresh water table ought to be free of playing with.

The fresh water table is 8-12,000 feet of impermeable rock, shale and chalk away from where the fracking is taking place.

In over fifty years of fracking history, no potable water source has ever been contaminated by the process.

Most telling statement on the board.

Looks like Waxman/Markey sense the "drill Baby drill" mantra is going to gain much steam in coming years and they're frantically trying to head it off whichever lying way they can.

That’s fantastic . Again there are trillions of cubic feet of methane off shore in middle of nowhere the ocean desert.

They are using Fresh water to pump down .
