Before everyone panics, the foaming agents used are the same non-toxic agents used for drilling water wells. Water well methods are used wherever a potable aquifer may be encountered. The drill cuttings are the same rocks that are scattered through the North Fork Valley, they aren't toxic, in fact may hold more mineral nutrients than the bleached out, mineral depleted soils in everyone's garden. And God forbid that water should ever touch the soil! Who knows what would grow if that happened?

I operated the wells in this area safely for over 25 years before any environmentalist even knew they were there and panicked over the "damage done", which was none. Get real people, please.
