This is an interesting and educational issue. Thanks for posting it.

My pleasure. I'm going to try and keep posting articles like this one to reinforce in everyone's mind, the fact that environmental groups will never stop anywhere in their attempts to slow energy development.

"The fact that environmental groups will never stop anywhere in their attempts to slow energy development."

If you don't like environmental groups' agendas, fine. But what's your response to the actual issues brought up? On the face of it, this kind of action very likely may drop the water tables, and thus harm agriculture in the region. And it's a documented fact that using water with too many salts in them (whether the salts be naturally occuring, or from fertilizer runoff) can reduce or destroy the productivity of agricultural land.

Have the envirowhackos go to Campbell County then try to convince us tha we need to preserve evry bit of pristine land. That area is the single ugliest area I've ever seen in the US. The wells and pumps actually improve the landscape.
