Hydraulic fracturing does not present unmanageable risk to our environmental or to agriculture. Not only are cattle and other animals not negatively affected by fracturing, shale development is providing new and much-needed revenue streams, allowing farmers to continue operating their family farms.

Responsible shale development is providing important jobs and revenue to farmers, giving them more financial security so that they can keep their family farms. And we are all committed to protecting our land and our environment.
