Received via email and posted as a reminder; though benefiting many areas of the nation economically, the process of 'fracking' to extract petrochemicals from the ground has further reaching effects than the immediate - the TU stance is OUTLINED HERE.

WHY WE CARE
Public lands are home to some of our nation's finest trout and salmon
fisheries. Millions of acres of these lands are also leased for oil and
gas development. The Bureau of Land Management has proposed an update to
its 30-year-old hydraulic fracturing regulations. If strengthened and
finalized, this rule can help ensure that as oil and gas development
proceeds on public land, the appropriate safeguards are in place to help
land managers prevent harm to aquatic resources. Please visit our
online
action center today to comment on the proposed rule.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
Visit our action center to learn more about the proposed rule, and to ask BLM to strengthen and finalize it.
