Resumen de US fracking legislation gets lukewarm reception

Laura Syrett

  • Michael Brune of the grassroots environmental campaign organisation the Sierra Club said that the group was "alarmed and disappointed by the fundamental inadequacy of the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) new proposed fracking regulations".

    "We know from experience that hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling methods can be used safely and effectively, employing many of the best management practices reflected in this draft rule," said the BLM's principal deputy director, Neil Kornze.

    "Comparing today's rule governing fracking on public lands with the one proposed a year earlier, it is clear what happened: the BLM caved to the wealthy and powerful oil and gas industry and left the public to fend for itself," said Jessica Ennis, legislative representative for the group Earthjustice.
