Fracking is coming to Boulder county

The Fracking Moratorium in Boulder County ENDS May 1st, 2017

Fracking permits will be issued in the next weeks

The Boulder County Commissioners are expected to approve new regulations March 23rd

As many as 1,800 fracking wells are expected

The wells will be built on giant pads with 30-50 wells each

Expect 5.4 million heavy equipment truck trips

Each well requires, in the vicinity of, 3000 heavy equipment truck trips

$frack-bw-plus$

14 billion gallons of water will be used

Each well requires 8 million gallons of water mixed with poisons like benzene

Natural gas is not clean energy

If more than 3% of the methane escapes during the life of the well it is now worse for climate change than coal

Fracking can not be safely regulated in our community

The negative effects on health, air, water, soil, eco-systems, wildlife and nature are documented.

Weld county has been devastated by fracking

There are 35,000 fracking wells in Weld county and the costs to health, air, soil and water are extreme
