Yeah, I've heard of that happening in a few places where fracking is taking place too.
I mean seriously, if the process was as absolutely safe as some tend to imply, you'd think that the name they'd have come up with would have been better than fracking.
That's the way it goes though. Some considerations and legitimate concerns tend to get swept under the carpet when people start seeing all those fracking dollar signs dancing before their eyes.
OK I promise, that's the last time I'm saying fracking..........wait.............OK, starting now..............

Weld County
In a scene from the film Weld County landowner Mike Markham is shown with director Josh Fox igniting gas from a tap water faucet in his home with a cigarette lighter, which the film attributes to natural gas exploration in the area. In 2008 The Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) investigated a complaint made by Markham alleging that nearby natural gas operations impacted his domestic water well.[10] Laboratory tests concluded that Markham’s water well contained biogenic methane, a combustible gas that occurs naturally in underground coal beds.[10] Further investigation revealed that Markham’s water well had been drilled through four different coal beds containing naturally occurring biogenic methane gas. The 2008 investigation concluded that "there [were] no indications of oil & gas related impacts to [Markham's] water well." It was also concluded that the water well of Weld County landowner Renee McClure, also featured in the film, contained naturally occurring biogenic methane not related to oil and gas activity in the area
I thought by now people would no better than to trust an internet site with no profesional affiliation. The enviromentalists are experts aat creating faux science and are better than the Nazis were at spreading propaganda as science.
