WRC Jim Nash to hold Town Hall meeting on drilling & 'fracking', White Lk Twp

Town Hall Meeting in White Lake
Township on Oil & Gas Drilling and “Fracking”

Oakland County Water Resources Commissioner Jim Nash will be addressing residents on the subject of drilling and fracking on April 22 at 6:00p at the Dublin Community Center.

Oil and gas exploration
and drilling are coming to our area, although “fracking” may not be part of
process in Oakland County.  Many homeowners
are worried about spills, noise, groundwater contamination, and increased truck
and equipment traffic in urban and suburban settings.

“We want our
residents to be informed and learn more about important topics that can affect
our quality of life,” said Jim Nash.  “As
more and more leases are being signed across the county, residents need to know
how this industry can affect the environment,” he added.     

Thousands of acres
of land in Oakland and the region have had their mineral rights sold or have
been leased to Jordan Exploration and other companies over the past year for
exploration and possible drilling.

There will be a Q & A period.  All are encouraged to attend!
