My career as a political scientist. And this has been amongst if not the most satisfying intellectually to work with john and work with all the authors who are all crs analysts and experts who in addition to their regular duties i want to emphasize that in addition to answering the requests that come in from members of congress and their staffs, in addition to that sat down and found the time oftentimes outside of regular work hours on the weekends and in the evenings to write these very insightful chapters. And i think its im very proud to be part of the institution of the Congressional Research service at the library of congress, also a terrific institution. And were very happy every day coming to work to help serve members of congress and with the goal of an informed national legislature. So as long as were we continue to be funded, as long as Congress Wants us to be there and help them, well keep showing up for work. And producing hopefully more documents like the one we produced f
In appellation of the basin is my into standing that most of the flowback is used to drill new wells. So the quantity of flowback is small. To ship it to ohio for final injection.

Pollution of Drinking Water whether from fracking or flawed construction of the well, or from surface waste from the site moving into aquifers has occurred 248 times between 2008 and 2014 in pennsylvania. We actually do not know how many incidents in total there have been because the state did not start collecting statistics on incidents until 2014. If we had more transparency, more accountable and more oversight, local communities would be able to make well wellinformed choices. However, building an oversight hearing around Public Relations campaigns to dismiss those concerns of local communities not only does a disservice to members of this committee, it also does nothing to increase the trust of the fracking industry in those communities. In closing, i would argue that it is not some hypocritical Smear Campaign by. The federal government, but rather repeated attacks against epa and campa
