Taking lease money from fracking companies may seem like a good deal... (right now).
But when these property owners go to sell or refinance, they suddenly may wish they had paid more attention to the warning signs. Neighbors should be talking with one another about what is going on in their area, including this policy development....

I have not seen this EPA report, but I read somewhere that they were testing only for certain specific fracking-additives in the ground water. For those tests, I would believe the specific data values obtained and those values being below EPA's "maximum allowable limits". This would then allow EPA to state their tests "did not show levels of contamination that could present a health concern." This statement does not say the values were zero or non-detectable Beyond that, there might be additives for which EPA did not test, or toxic levels that are below the limits EPA now considers to be safe. Likewise, they may not have tested all appropriate water sources. (The unknown boogeyman argument.) I feel EPA is generally what you want in a governmental agency. That is, their actions are based heavily on scientific sampling, testing and lab assays, etc. From my experience interacting with EPA , they are pretty "unbiased". Also, they are subject to public hearings and inputs, so there is a "real world" link in their actions. Compared with agencies (such as the Dept of Agriculture) that have missions "to promote...", I put EPA at a pretty high level of authenticity. Industry and business don't always have the same opinions of EPA. Remember the politicians who pledged to voters they would "get rid of EPA" ? The other side of industry is, if EPA says it's OK then it's OK, regardless of some lab data values being above zero. |

Meh. Very glad that Vermont's banned that shit. I actually interviewed for a job with/had an observation day the other day with VPIRG, the VT public interest research group, who were instrumental in getting that legislation passed.
