Apology Sent Downstream: A Message In A Bottle from the folk of Youngstown, Ohio, 9 days after the latest dumping of fracking toxins into the Mahoning River:
"Youngstown, ODNR, and OEPA Have Failed Our Downstream Neighbors~ ~We Humbly Apologize For Lack of Good Stewardship ~ Let it be known that on this day, Sunday, February10, 2013: We, the enraged citizens of Frackfree America National Coalition Frackfree Mahoning Valley, and Stop Fracking Ohio formally apologize to our downstream neighbors along our Mahoning River. On January 31, 2013, 2013, D&L Energy, 2761 Salt Springs Road, Youngstown, Ohio, was found to have been INTENTIONALLY DUMPING toxic frack fluid and oil into a storm drain that led directly to the Mahoning River. The investigation began Jan. 31, 2013. If your local water departments were not immediately notified, we apologize. ~~~ We trusted a local company to do the right thing, and our regulators to properly oversee their toxic activities. We apologize. ~~~Our lack of oversight and our trust of an industry that has proven not to deserve such trust in the past has exposed your residents to the Toxins of Fracking. ~~~We realize our apology is a nice gesture but we would not find fault with lawsuits to offset damages to public health and safety you have received." (signed) Reverend Monica Beasley-Martin Founder: Defenders of the Earth Outreach Mission and (signatures) Concerned Upstream Neighbors
