"Tarbell said various substances could easily seep into the groundwater through cracks in underground rockbeds created by the fracturing process of drilling for oil and gas, leading to the determination that Schreiner was the responsible party for the contamination."Read the rest here.
"Laser's director of pipeline engineering services Kevin Marion said the boring under the creek was designed "excessively deep" to try to avoid the problem, but the Susquehanna County terrain has led to inadvertent returns 'more often than any other place I've ever worked.'"

I think natural gas drilling operations in Pennsylvania could be called a crap shoot. When something happens, like THREE inadvertent returns in a few days in an exceptional value creek, the comment from the gas companies seems to be surprise. Never seen anything like it. However, a video shot by a citizen right after the first mud incident, contained an interview of a woman who said she was one of the people in charge, and she said this wasn't all that unusual. She said it would all be cleaned up, and then the drilling would resume. Well, we find ourselves on spill number three. How many spills do we need before this company is shut down for good?
