URGENT ACTION NEEDED IN ROCKINGHAM COUNTY

February 13, 2015

Disapproval Bills have been introduced in the house and senate for the MEC rules. MEC rules completely ignore setback language for frack zone and aquifer which is very dangerous with some of our shale being just below or at the surface. Setbacks from the river, homes and public buildings are grossly inadequate. Also there is no language in the rules for road maintenance, and drinking wells are not adequately protected.
