Some environmentalists are drawing attention to fracking, while experts caution that such a rupture is unlikely."]]> 2018-03-07 02:19:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238975134 sacbay18 https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238975597 "Aliso Canyon was a major producer of hydraulically fractured gas, compared to California’s other natural gas storage facilities."
"State officials have indicated well SS-25 could be leaking around 500 feet below ground. The nearby well, SS 4-0, was fracked at deeper than 9,000 feet."]]> 2018-03-07 02:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238975597 sacbay18 https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238976497 "Many landowners, especially struggling dairy farmers, have benefited from leasing their land to the gas industry. But several people in Bradford County have seen their private water wells contaminated by stray methane gas."
"Some Bradford County landowners have also recently started to complain about the amount of deductions drillers take from their monthly royalty checks. Most of the complaints have been focused on Chesapeake Energy, which is one of the most active companies in the county."
"The controversy over check deductions lead to a state Senate hearing on the issue]]> 2018-03-07 02:25:44 UTC https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238976497 sacbay18 https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238976865 This Case has proven the detrimental water effects this fracking incident has caused. with major leaking and issues for local farming, the gas leaking ruins not only the water, but the land too.]]> 2018-03-07 02:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238976865 sacbay18 https://padlet.com/sacbay18/7b0op63qdjxi/wish/238977150 fracking consumes huge quantities of water, which it contaminates with a heady mix of toxic chemicals, a problem that threatens to slow this expansion.
"Each fracking well can require two to five million gallons of fresh water, which is pumped underground at high pressure to fracture rock and release trapped oil and gas. Much of that water flows back out, carrying with it the toxic chemicals used to aid the fracking process, as well as toxic materials flushed from the fractured rock."
