I’d love to see them trimmed down to a mere handful of experts and scientists.Better yet,make them a state agency and not federal.Easier to monitor state environmental issues,and to monitor those who do the monitoring,so as to weed out the morons.
The city water in Albion reeks to high heaven of sulfur, people who live there use bottled water for drinking, cooking, and house plants. You can shower with city water but you need a strong stomach.
Yes, oil and water strata exist in the same geological formations, usually with the oil floating on top of the water. Those in SE Michigan are very close to the surface.

Is it one billionth part per zillion? Like the pharma scare? Where you’d have to drink three olympic-sized swimming pools full to get one daily dose?
Where is the baseline prior to fracing?
This whole EPA thing brings up a saying “figures don’t lie, but lots of liars figure”.
There are working wells in all 76 counties in the lower peninsula of Michigan. Lots of new drilling going on around me in far eastern Jackson county.
Don't want to believe it? I think you will when you are freezing in the dark after a few more years of this marxist BS.
The socialist frauds infested in EPA think everything is pollution. I wouldn’t believe anything they say. Look no further that their misguided stance on CO2. In 2012 we have to clean house of these government agencies that have been infiltrated with radical environmental anti american socialist DEMOCRATS.
The EPA has been so infamous for involvement in Green Scams (TM) that quite frankly it doesn’t behoove anybody to run around with their pants on fire because, ohhhhhh, EPA says it’s “concerned” about something. In fact I greet that with a yawn till some independent entity (and I don’t mean the sensationalist press) comes and and says yep, there’s a problem and it’s not the EPA this time.
If they found one hydraulic fracturing chemical, why didn’t they find any others?
Their Board and Advisors look like a leftist journolist, including Henry Louis Gates, Gara LaMarche [who "served as Vice President and Director of U.S. Programs for the Open Society Institute (OSI), a foundation established by philanthropist George Soros"], Paul Sagan, formerly of Time, Tom Unterman, who "held several executive positions at the Times Mirror Company", along with their illustrious editorial staff made up of leftists from NY Times, Seattle Times, Los Angeles Times, Baltimore Sun, Atlanta Journal-Constipation, ABC News, etc. And of course exemplified by that shining beacon of totally unbiased, high class journolism- "Cynthia A. Tucker, visiting professor, University of Georgia Journalism School".
Gee, anyone see any agenda at all here? I would think that even libtards like strokeoffer and checkersplayer would have a difficult time swallowing all this tripe from unabashed, avowed marxists. But then again...
Neat. A quick read would leave the impression that fracking is causing high levels of cancer-causing compounds in the water. Obviously meant to mislead and cause senseless hysteria.. And it worked. On you.

Crusty. it is so deceiving for them to represent fracking as being something new to the awl field. Sheese. it has been going on for at least 60 or 70 years.
They are going to do their best to shut down or seriously limit drilling activity. They are trying their best here over a damn brown lizard.
I’m not agreeing with them...just wanted to get your input to the thread. That’s why I ping you...I want to hear what you have to say.
Should have just said, "No, I'm just having it boxed up and delivered to your house. Perhaps you can have it tested there."
Now to read the whole article...

It's like this. The water is in the GROUND. So is everything else on the planet, except for most of the atmosphere.
The ground contains oil, in it's various forms, on a natural and repetitive basis.
There are various chemicals and compounds found in ground water, and they can come from a variety of sources. Water not only flows along through rivers, but also under rivers, and even under deserts. The source of a particular contamination can be from very far away.
The EPA is crying wolf in order to run certain companies out of business, at the request of the DNC and the Obama Administration.
