Fracking News

Sacred?

June 7, 2011 By TXsharon

 

 

In reference to HB 3328, the Texas disclosure bill, Elizabeth Ames Jones, Chairman of the Texas Railroad Commission said that “Gas drillers won’t be required to reveal all the chemicals they shoot underground in the process because they are trade secrets.”

“We won’t be knowing the recipes,” Jones said during a telephone interview from the state capital, Austin. “That’s sacred ground as far as I’m concerned and I don’t think that’s at all the direction we want to go in.”

Texas Says ‘Sacred’ Gas Fracking Recipes Off Limits to EPA
By Joe Carroll

That’s a dog whistle to industry for them to fund her US Senate race. But, industry is smarter than that. They aren’t going to fund a loser.

I don’t know about you but one of the things I hold sacred is safe water for every human on this planet.

    We've been ruined by Big Gas in the Bossier shale find. Now you can tell the "Elizabeth" that it's a trade secret as to what I think of her AND the RRC!!

    The Safe Fracking Coalition out of Laredo, TX will host a town hall meeting this Friday at 6 p.m.

    I am planning to stream the event live.

    Various state officials will be present.

    A cloak of "sacredness" and good intentions is the very essence of a good scam. A spokesperson who smiles sweetly, has no conscience and says God has ordained it ~ they're definitely diggin in.
