That’s the model to follow — not New York’s.

Hmmmm..... Did the Washington Post forget to mention ...

from here
Colorado: yellow dots = violatlons

green lines = water sheds
lavender = shale plays
tan areas = shale basins
orange dots = horizontal wells

Pennsylvania: yellow dots = violations

green lines = water sheds
lavender area = EIA shale play
purple dots = permits

Maybe Kentucky doesn't have problems ... yet, but government prevention of coal ash problems hasn't set a good example.
