EPA says fracking is not a threat to drinking water. Liberals – lose your minds.
(NPR) “We found the hydraulic fracturing activities in the United States are carried out in a way that has not led to widespread systemic impacts on drinking water resources,” says Tom Burke, science adviser and deputy assistant administrator of the EPA’s Office of Research and Development. “In fact, the number of documented impacts to drinking water resources is relatively low when compared to the number of fractured wells,” he adds.
The scaremongering Environmentalists are (naturally?) outraged that the EPA didn’t game the study to arrive at their desired outcome. But this is just the draft assessment. There is still time to “buy off” the “jury.”
The EPA study will be finalized after a review by the Science Advisory Board and public comment.
