7. Finally, an pdate on the May 4th spill in Morgan County, Ohio

Thu May 29, 2014, 03:52 PM

May 2014

Finally, there is an article in today's May 29th Marietta Times that says that spokesmen for PDC Energy, the Colorado-based company whose hydraulic-fracturing well in Morgan County "sprang a leak" on May 4th, are saying that their cleanup "is almost complete", but that "there is still a ways to go before the well-pad is cleaned and operations can begin again." No mention of testing the water in Cow Run near Beverly, Ohio or checking to see if any of the gummy toxic waste made flowed into the Muskingum River ... These folks need to be watched carefully!
