EcoWatch: On June 4, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a report on how fracking for oil and gas can impact access to safe drinking water. Although the report claims not to have found any widespread, systemic impacts on drinking water resources in the United States, a new study in Texas provides more evidence that contamination of drinking water from fracking might be occurring. A research team at the University of Texas at Arlington has published a peer-reviewed study, A Comprehensive...

EPA Finds No Widespread Drinking Water Pollution Fracking
2015-06-04 22:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Public Radio: The Environmental Protection Agency says it has found no evidence that hydraulic fracturing - better known as fracking - has led to widespread pollution of drinking water. The oil industry and its backers welcome the long-awaited study, while environmental groups criticize it. "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...

Fracking poses potential risks some drinking water supplies: EPA study
2015-06-04 18:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Fracking for shale oil and gas has not led to widespread pollution of drinking water, a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency draft report said on Thursday, although it warned some drilling activities could potentially cause health risks. The study, requested by Congress and five years in the making, said fracking could contaminate drinking water under certain conditions, such as when fluids used in the process leaked into the water table. The EPA said it found isolated cases of water contamination,...
