Heavy construction equipment clearing trees for 5 fracking waste injection wells proposed to be sited in Brookfield, Ohio
Brookfield, Ohio residents and their allies strongly oppose the siting of five - yes five! - proposed fracking waste injection wells in Brookfield, which is an area close to injection well-related, man-made earthquake epicenters, including a now-famous 4.0 magnitude quake in 2011 in Youngstown, Ohio.
To hear the relentless, disturbing sounds and see the astonishing disruption of injection well preparation, please watch and share widely the following two, brief YouTube videos of preparation for fracking waste injection wells in Brookfield, Ohio.

The following two photos show the previous peacefulness and beauty of the same backyard now being ravaged by nearby injection well preparation as shown in the above YouTube videos.
Why are heavy industrial operations, including fracking waste injection and disposal wells being placed so near families, homes, parks, schools, forests, and elsewhere locally and in other states across our nation? This is unacceptable and must be lawfully halted.
More injustice as evidenced by the below photos of heavy industrial fracking waste injection well operations in nearby Vienna, Ohio way too near a family home and community are below. Vienna, Ohio also experienced a 2015 waste release associated with a now-closed waste injection well that destroyed two wetlands and a pond.

This insanity of states' allowing heavy industrial fracking-related activity in and near our homes and neighborhoods must stop to protect the public health, safety, welfare and private property rights and values of our communities:
"As many concerned citizens have said regarding injection wells: We are not going away. Ohio is not a toxic fracking waste dumping ground. We are not expendable. No one is expendable. These are our family homes. Our livelihoods have been invested in them. We have private property rights, too. ODNR must halt this permitting process now in order to protect the public health, safety, and well-being of Brookfield and the entire region."

http://ohiosb50.org/Senate Bill 50 would prohibit the disposal of brine by deep well injection, by land application, and in association with enhanced recovery. Accordingly, it eliminates the per-barrel injection well fee. It also prohibits the conversion of a well to a use other than its original purpose (for example, converting from an oil and gas production well to an injection well) and establishes criminal penalties for a violation of the bill’s prohibition.
