    As am sure lots of people aware there has been a lot of discussion about the Gas extraction technique Hydraulic Fracturing. People probably most associate it with Leitrim and Fermanagh but here is a link to a report by Sligo-based hydrogeologist Davide Gallazzi on the threat to Ballyshannon water supply. I suppose its important to realise this is a national issue that doesnt just affect Leitrim. http://goodenergiesalliancedotcom.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/ballyshannon-limestone-press-release.pdf

    Fracking is a national as well as international issue. Its not just confined to leitrim although thats where they propose to start. Its important that everyone pulls together to stop them before they start, its in their interest to do so. Useful link for people to see if they are in a townland is licenced for fracking.

    Couldn't agree more.

    And that is why Im putting an end here and now to the continual and deliberate posting and bumping of threads on the topic across various county and regional forums. I am not going to allow my forums to be used for soap boxing.

    garth-marenghi and tuppence please post your concerns from now on in one of the forums that encompasses the entire country. Thanks.
