Four people left with the ability to tell right from wrong in North Carolina, hmf, I thought they were extinct. Go figure. Watch out for the pepper spray.

Geosol. Should someone expect a profit for taking a chance to produce a product that others might buy? Why are so so against those who are not lazy and actually do something with their life?

Love to see my tax money wasted on this right wing boondoggle!! Folks THIS is the kind of thing you can expect when REPUBLICANS have no effective political opposition. Use BIG GOVERNMENT to spend OUR TAX DOLLARS so that a very small minority of rich people can try to make even more money. The good news is that there is too little gas to make this crazy right wing boondoggle work for several decades to come - if ever. But it IS fun to watch them make complete fools of themselves. I just wish they wouldn't use MY MONEY to do it.

The last figures I saw on the BP blowout in the gulf, they had paid out over 20 BILLION out of pocket toward compensation for individual and enviornmental sufferages and damages. These orginaizations know there are going to be accidents and I believe they are responsible stewards of our enviornment. After all whar would be the use in fracking and making millions and then having to pay all the profits out in compensury claims. Also, if you ask the U.S. Department of the Interior, the government holds ALL mineral rights on every inch of land in America.

Where were all these tree hungers when hog lagoons were pouring waste into our rivers and streams. Where were they when Sanderson Farms wanted to build a slaughter house on the Tar River? Why come out now? Who is paying them to protest? Are these protesters being paid by another party?

"& where exactly is the municipal water coming from ?? & if it is treated wastewater, what happens when it is diverted from streams?"

"they need you approval" CORRECTION, They don't need your approval..

"We will take all jobs we can get around here. If they want to build a chicken plant in my backyard here in Nash county, it is fine by me. A bad smell is a small price to pay when there is a potential of over a thousand jobs created. I will take gas well in my backyard also if I get my own direct line."

ALL HAIL ME December 18, 2012 5:44 p.______________________________________ 1. Those jobs won't be local jobs. 2. You just might end up paying more for water than ya do now. 3. Your taxes will go up to pay for this. 4. No direct line to your house, ya know ya got to pay that middle man and those taxes. 5. It ain't alway sunny in NC.

"A report to the panel said there are no saltwater reserves in the areas where most drilling would occur. "That's a bit of a pity, but we will not give up. We will look for alternative water, like municipal water and so forth, to take the burden off freshwater withdrawals," said Vikram Rao, chairman of the commission's Water and Waste Management Committee"

Well I own land here in easstern NC, and I dont approve of them useing my Gas, if I think they are goin after it... well i'm old fashioned, i'll give them some other minerals to worry about... lead

maewyn2 December 18, 2012 11:16 a.m. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>Then you better be contacting your Rep. because the way the law is written, they need you approval, they can drill at an angle under your property. It just amaze me how many people don't understand what this law is and what is in it. They've all but gave away our rights to the gas companies. There will be a few who'll make money, but the rest of us will be paying for the damage they do, the clean up that go on for years. Our children and grand kids will be paying for this years from now. It's already cost us a load of tax dollars we don't have and they aint' even drilled a well yet.
