Fracking Brine Spill in Trumbull County

A five mile stretch of road in Trumbull County is coated with 100 to 150 gallons of fluid that dried into a reddish brown residue, which the EPA thinks is/was fracking brine.

A lot of the grass in the area around the (maybe) brine spill is dead, but hey, the EPA says it's not a threat.

Question (for anyone with an opinion who wants to answer): How is it possible that the agency assigned with the responsibility of protecting Ohio's citizens from environmental threats does not know what this is after having several days to find out?

Here is an embedded video of the news story about this dangerous fraccident.
