Any person can go through every little piece of paper and search for something that will back their point of view. Pollution to auquifiers is a documented fact that happened in the Barnett shale and it is happening in the Fayetteville Shale. This is caused by over Fracturing, low quality stem pipe rupturing below the surface, and accidental hazardous waste spills above surface that are not contained. No one wants it to happen, but it happens to even the best. Some of the time this not being documented.

I'm not going to comment on Obama's EPA, their understanding of oil and gas, or their qualifications to be an all around EPA official. Just look at our Treasury Secretary. I see anti oil and gas. I am not anti oil and gas. I am for oil and gas all the way. And, I am very sincere with this. Cary
