Comments about ‘'Fracking' fight continues in wake of EPA water contamination finding’

So the company says there is nothing wrong with the water but they buy water for the town and deliver. Hmmm, nothing wrong here.

If we would just do away with the EPA this problem would not exist - just ask the tea party or Rick Perry. We must have liberty.

Ever smell raw natural gas or crude - neither smell anything like "gasoline". Sounds like something else is unidentified as the source. Fracking is an easy target for blame for those who lack real knowledge. I know an old water well that was on my parent's homestead was fine for years and then started having a sulfurous odor. Things often change as we use a well for many years!

Drill, baby is not a consequence free idea. But it's what we want. And we want a whole lot more of it.

Natural gas has no smell. It is added so we know it's there. Crude oil has a smell, but it doesn't smell like gasoline.

When my grandparents lived in Hiawatha, the water in town came from the mine. It was stored in an old shutdown mine in West Hiawatha. It tasted like coal. Big deal. It wasn't dangerous.

Utahans are so cynical when it comes to environmental issues that the word environment is a four letter word. How someone would ever think that it would be ok to pump chemicals into the ground I do not know.

Natural gas is odorless. The sulfur smell is added when it is pumped into your pipes so you can smell leaks in your home.

This mans well may have changed, wells do that sometimes as they age, but the natural gas drilling most likely has nothing to do with it.

If the EPA wants to do some real science they should drill to water well depths and test there, not 3 to 4 times the depth of a normal well... unless they want to drill for oil and natural gas.

My parents had a well drilled at their cabin in CO. In the spring, when we went up for the first time each year, the water always smelled of sulfer. That went away after the first week of use.
