The process that is touted has generally been undertaken in far remote locales. The changes in the safe water therefore have been negligible. But the proposed "safe conditions of new technologies are upon sites which are closer to popuplations and water sources,such as aquifers. The process does not account an additional safety level for the conditions of proximity. And it is not generally a "closed end system" but replaces the excess into the ground. These should be accounted for.

We've sacrificed San Juan County on the altar of dirty coal, gas, & oil drilling. The name of the game is get it out of the ground as fast and cheap as possible,so I can get back to my mansion in Houston. |
