 Obama USDA delays shale drilling, up to 200k jobs

by Joel Gehrke Commentary Staff Writer


President Obama's United States Department of Agriculture has delayed shale gas drilling in Ohio for up to six months by cancelling a mineral lease auction for Wayne National Forest (WNF). The move was taken in deference to environmentalists, on the pretext of studying the effects of hydraulic fracturing.

“Conditions have changed since the 2006 Forest Plan was developed," announced WNF Supervisor Anne Carey on Tuesday. "The technology used in the Utica & Marcellus Shale formations need to be studied to see if potential effects to the surface are significantly different than those identified in the Forest Plan." The study will take up to six months to complete. The WNF study reportedly "will focus solely on how it could affect forest land," the significance of hydraulic fracturing to united proponents of the delay, "and not how it could affect groundwater."

Speaking of the WNF gas drilling, one environmentalist group spokesman suggested that moving forward with drilling "could turn the Ohio Valley into Ozone Alley,"  even though Wayne National Forest already has nearly 1300 oil and gas wells in operation.

The Ohio Oil and Gas Energy Education Program (OOGEEP) recently estimated that drilling in the Utica shale, which is affected by the suspension of the mineral lease auctions, would produce up 204,500 jobs by 2015.

"The President’s plan is to simply say ‘no’ to new energy production," House Natural Resources Committee chairman Doc Hastings, R-Wash, said to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar during a hearing pertaining to hydraulic fracturing. "It’s a plan that is sending American jobs overseas, forfeiting new revenue, and denying access to American energy that would lessen our dependence on hostile Middle Eastern oil."

Salazar denied that suggestion, noting the sales of mineral leases over the last two years, but he also affirmed environmentalist concerns. "The increasing use of hydraulic fracturing has raised a number of concerns about the potential impacts on water quality and availability, particularly with respect to the chemical composition of fracturing fluids and the methods used."

Hydraulic Fraking is banned in a number of countries and the consequences from a screwup can be enormous.  I would suggest you read up a little bit before inding something to disagree with because even Bush refused to allow fraking.

I suggest YOU read up on it as it has been around for at least five decades and there isn't a single identifiable major accident attributable to it.

You make some of the slower people on this board look like Nobel physicists.

Left wing communists likÉ vince and the others don't give a damn about jobs or the economy.   Its all about a far left communist agenda to collapse the nation.

There have been plenty of accidents but because its been limited to isolated places, its not been a danger to communities.  But now that they are encroaching in on communities, its not going to fly.  Personally, I don't wish to be nowhere near a fraking facility


BTW, there won't be any job gains.
