Fracking area water again shows pollutants, EPA says by Mark Drajem, October 11, 2012, Bloomberg News in Tulsa World
The latest round of test results on water in Pavillion, Wyo., show pollutants “consistent” with those from last year that were used to link water problems in that town to hydraulic fracturing, the Environmental Protection Agency said Wednesday. … “EPA has provided no sound scientific evidence that drilling has impacted domestic drinking water wells in the area,” Doug Hock, a spokesman for Encana, said in an email. “Encana didn’t put the hydrocarbons there; nature did.”
