Kande, there is far more science to this topic that is ever discussed in the press.  I'm not saying that fracking hasn't caused any problems, but in Alberta it is not and has not been a problem.  These problems are solved using stable isotope science, the same science used to generate data for climate science.  In my experience, AER holds energy companies accountable in any case that is supported by this science.  In this case, AER had no science to back up this womans claim that fracking caused her well gas.  AER did the right thing and this woman should accept it.  The money she has spent on lawyers would easily have drilled her another well.
