People in NY think they are safe from the harms of fracking. But are they?

He recently told me that some residents on private wells have had their water turn black. Fracking operations are going on ~4000 feet away.
...Massive wide-spread defoliation with undisclosed industrial
chemicals . . . does that sound familiar ? It does if you are of a certain
age. That’s what the US Army did to the Vietnamese and our own soldiers in
Viet Nam: poisoned them with herbicides that just happened to
have some rather nasty side effects on people. Do yourself a favor and don’t
read up on what Agent Orange did to the unborn. Think
Thalidomide. Which, for all we know, could be an ingredient in frack water.
Something really nasty is for damn sure in the stuff:
...
This is a serious problem because these people are on city sewer, but may get cut off, as the chemicals in frack fluids destroy the beneficial bacteria necessary for sewer plants to operate.I note the the water from Great Bend flows towards NY and Binghamton. Also, I note the City of Binghamton (as Bret tells me) has at least one water source which draws directly from the Susquehanna.
So I started wondering, how many fracked wells exist now in the watershed with drains into the Susquehanna and ultimately provides Binghamton’s water?
