Benzene "extremely high" in Fort Worth near Chesapeake facility

February 7, 2010 By TXsharon

“…the concentration of benzene at levels seen in this report was extremely high for the meteorological conditions on the day of testing.”

The benzene was 1.77 ppb on a cold winter day.

HERE’s the test. It’s part of a lawsuit where Chesapeake Energy is the defendant.

Isn’t CHK the company that’s always going on about their non-toxic “dry gas.” Oh wait! That “dry gas” myth was already busted.

    Chesapeake vs a single homeowner, how do you think that is going to play out, 'ol Chessy? Just write the guy a big fat check, 'cause you're going to lose. In fact, keep the pen warm, I have a feeling there is more coming. A jury of my peers in that situation, I would take that any day of the week. Oh look, more Flower Mound people giving the industry hell and holding them accountable.
