Re: Isn't that special... [by AndyP]

Conservation:: Isn't that special...
I work in the construction business in SEPA and was talking to a friend at Aqua Pa/ Aqua America and they have a subsidiary that is in the waste treatment end of the water business and he said that they are working a putting plants in place to handle the new "frack water business". Hopefully some new plants could help.

Pcray - some nice info. I don't believe anyone really wants this to turn into an enviromental tragedy. My outrage is in the special treatment the industry has gotten. The permit process was speeded up with virtually no review of the site plans and the County Conservation District was told that they were not allowed to inpect the soil and erosion controls(this may have changed). In 25 years of managing construction sites I was never allowed to disturb the site until my soil&erosion controls were inpspected and signed off by the CCD agent. It is all about oversight and regulation. I know that the drilling can't be stopped and it shouldn't be, but our water supply and enviroment needs to be protected since it is under increased pressure every year. I just have a sinking feeling that this is going to end badly. And boy do I hope I am wrong. I will glady eat some humble pie and wash it down with a glass of frack water!!!
