Michael Guesman, an employee at Hardrock Excavating in Youngstown, Ohio,
pleaded guilty yesterday to an unpermitted discharge of pollutants under the Environmental
Protection Agency’s Clean Water Act. Guesman said that his boss, owner Benedict Lupo,
ordered him to dump tens of thousands of gallons of fracking waste into the Mahoning
River on at least twenty-four separate occasions.

Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is the process of injecting millions of gallons of chemically
treated water at a high pressure into the ground in order to create tiny fractures
— often less than a single millimeter — through which underground gas resources can
migrate. That water, however, must be removed before the resources can move into
them, and the EPA has strict rules governing how that toxic byproduct is disposed.


The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

I don't tear down the community.

You idiots do to build palaces.

I'm just speaking out against it.

It's not anti-libertarian to speak out against excessive  taxation and corporate welfare.

You are clueless.

You call that tearing down the community.

You "literally" support tearing down the community to fund corporate whores.

You are a true liberal tax and spend Democrat.

You support the government taking care of a city.

You don't support the government listening to the people.

You label them terrorists.

Good job, town official.



I  1000% endorse government listening to the people -- but what you folks do on this website is neither helpful or constructive.  You whine, complain, distort, bash and NEVER have anything positive or good to say, and if anyone disagrees with you on a topic -- you nayboobs act like a bunch of 3rd graders and attempt to threaten and destroy the person.  

THAT is why I don't take you seriously nor do most other REASONABLE people.

Your other comments above are just outrageous lies.

Approve fracking now and create thousands of new jobs in New York State.

Don't vote for any politician who opposes fracking.

Offshore oil drilling is safe, ask the gulf coast.

Nuclear power is safe, ask the Japanese.

Fracking is safe, ask the residents of Bayou Corne, Louisiana, and Youngstown, Ohio.

The meltdown of the nuclear plant in Japan created thousands of jobs too.

The town that sunk from fracking created tons of jobs too.

The gulf oil fiasco created thousands of jobs as well.

We don't need thousands of clean up jobs in the area.

PA Attorney General Brings Criminal Charges Against
Fracking Company For Spill


Quoted Text
Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane's office announced charges
Tuesday against XTO Energy Inc. for discharging more than 50,000 gallons of toxic
wastewater from storage tanks at a gas-well site in Lycoming County.

XTO in July settled federal civil charges over the incident by agreeing to pay a
$100,000 fine and deploy a plan to improve wastewater-management practices.
The consent decree included no admissions of liability. The Fort Worth, Texas, drilling
company, which Exxon acquired in 2010, said it had worked cooperatively with federal
and state authorities to clean up the spilled waste, known as "produced water." XTO
excavated and removed 3,000 tons of contaminated soil from the site.

Fracking in America’s Backyards
Quoted Text
The WSJ looked at census and natural gas well data from more than 700 counties in
11 major natural-gas producing states, and found that at least 15.3 million Americans have
a natural gas well within one mile of their home that has been drilled since 2000. That’s more
than the population of Michigan or New York.
The boom has left some towns inundated with natural gas operations. In suburban Johnson
County, Texas, 99.5 percent of the area’s 150,000 residents now live within a mile of the
county’s 3,900 wells — in 2000, there were fewer than 20 oil and gas wells.
