EnCana answers critics about Wyoming gas field groundwater study

Meanwhile, locals want the state to study frac'ing effects in Garfield County

"A natural gas company has hit back at its critics, at least indirectly, regarding possible groundwater contamination in a gas field in central Wyoming.


EnCana Oil & Gas (USA) sent out a letter on Aug. 28, addressed to the residents of Pavillion, Wyo., emphasizing that the Environmental Protection Agency has not reached any conclusions yet about the groundwater contamination question, and urging the residents to keep an open mind on the subject.


Meanwhile, a Garfield County group is planning to urge local officials to call for a state study of the potential effects of drilling on the residents of Battlement Mesa, where a gas company is planning to drill up to 200 wells." More>>>>
