Worry over fracking isn’t supported by history - MariettaTimes.com | News, Sports, Jobs, Ohio, Community Information - The Marietta Times
As This Author states, 30 years ago, over 5,000 wells were fracked in Washington County, exactly in the same manner that fracking is occurring today in the Marcellus, and Utica formations except that while we used a single stage frack they are using multiple stage ones. None of these 5,000 wells "resulted in leaving the community to clean up the resulting damage, and in many cases, unusable land." Having the luxury of looking back over 30 years at the oil boom which occurred in the early 1980s in Washington County, where are the ruined streams, polluted water wells and unusable land, that we are constantly being informed will occur if fracking is allowed to happen today. I believe, looking back that the 30 year time span demonstrates "the proof is in the pudding."
