Pavillion Area Concerned Citizens (PACC) statement on The AP Exclusive: Wyo. got EPA to delay frack finding Press Release May 4, 2012
The AP Exclusive: Wyo. got EPA to delay frack finding is yet another perfect example of how the State of Wyoming has covered up industry’s horrendous practices. Impacted citizens are viewed as collateral damage while the oil and gas industry rakes in billions of dollars. No one affected by the Pavillion gas field contamination is shocked by the AP article because we’ve been living with the state’s lack of action for over 10 years. If the state had recognized the problems and taken steps to protect Wyoming citizens when the contamination started, the EPA would not be conducting an investigation now. By its own account, Governor Mead’s administration has gone on a well planned campaign to discredit the EPA investigation. PACC Chair John Fenton explains that “since Governor Mead took office, PACC has reached out to him and his agency administrators in an honest effort to work on a solution to the very serious problems in EnCana’s Pavillion gas field.” … “It appears the state’s priority was to protect industry rather than address the contamination and protect the impacted residents. They conducted a planned media campaign to undermine the EPA’s scientific study. These deceptive and underhanded tactics employed by the Mead administration are representative of the influence the oil and gas industry has over the state government and its administrative agencies.”
