To ensure that the EPA is up-to-date on evolving hydraulic fracturing practices and technologies, we’ve been soliciting relevant data and scientific literature specific to potential impacts of hydraulic fracturing on drinking water resources. EPA’s Federal Register Request for Information to Inform Hydraulic Fracturing Research Related to Drinking Water Resources will be closing on Friday, November 15, 2013.
While
the EPA is conducting a thorough literature search, there may be studies or
other primary technical sources that are not available through the open
literature. Interested persons may provide scientific
analyses, studies, and other pertinent scientific information, preferably
information which has undergone scientific peer review. The EPA will consider
all submissions but will give preference to all peer reviewed data and
literature sources.
Thank
you for your interest in EPA’s study of the potential impacts of hydraulic
fracturing on drinking water resources.
