If I were to be a responsible Marylander or if I lived in western Maryland, I would think a three-year fracking moratorium would be an extremely good idea. In fact, if I lived in western Maryland and didn’t own mineral rights that made me rich, I would approve a hundred-year moratorium.
I have wondered, a little, about why, with the abundance of American oil and gas again, people think they need to start a new fracking rig right now. Seems it would be better just to relax and wait. Let the grandchildren or the great-grandchildren frack for oil after we are dead and everybody else is pumped dry. They would make real money.
