About this Petition Petition Letter

Citizens deserve a voice in government.  The government chose to exempt toxic fracturing drilling chemicals from the Safe Drinking Water Act.  All drinking water supplies whether public or private are now threatened near natural gas drilling with toxic poisons used in the drilling process.

Fossil fuels are not renewable.  Ban the use of toxic chemicals used in natural gas drilling process. We demand safer drilling technology and a ban on toxic drilling fluids.

Solar energy  is renewable energy.  It does not destroy our environmental essentials for life which are:  clean air, water and soil.

Tell your elected officials to ban toxic drilling chemicals before it is too late.

Ban Toxic Chemicals Used in Gas Drilling Fluids

Greetings,

We request a voice in our government. We respectfully request a moratorium on gas drilling which is using toxic chemicals in drilling fluids which are known to be hazardous to our health and threaten public and private drinking water supplies.

Toxic chemicals used in the drilling process remain in the subsurface and do not all flow back to the drilling pits.

We don't want our drinking water polluted with unknown toxic exempted chemicals not listed as contaminants on the Safe Drinking Water list of substances because of the government's compromised EPA study on health effects.

We videoed the toxic chemicals used in the gas drilling process.
We are the lab rats drinking water and bathing in it near natural gas drilling.

Who tested any of the public and private drinking water supplies near natural gas drilling to see poisonous toxic drilling chemicals were in the drinking water? The answer is: No one tested because the poison is exempt.

Safer drilling technology would save our environment and inhabitants. The Frac Act would not test public and private drinking water supplies for over 400 toxic chemicals used in the drilling fluids, would it?

Ban exempted toxic poisonous chemicals which are now used in gas drilling fluids.

This is our voice, hear our plea, have mercy on the environment and citizens of the United States of America.

Sincerely,

Clean Air Water and Soil in Pennsylvania
