Leroy Blowout Video by Susquahanna River Sentinel

This embedded link will let you see video taken and posted on the Susquehanna River Sentinel.

Since this was origianlly posted, the video has been made private, so it's basically worthless as a means of sharing information about the fracking blowout. Sorry everyone.

Basically,the ground surrounding a fracking site in Leroy erupted and sprayed unknown chemicals about 25 feet in all directions and greasy-looking mud and "colorful" water continues to bubble out of the ground and river basin.

 In the video, before it was made private, you can could also see a greasy-looking substance pooling at the water's edge and note the absence of river life. Normally, if you scoop up an handful of river mud, there will be some small water bugs and maybe a couple of snails. These images - just greasy-looking mud.

Frack Facts on Facebook

Hi Everyone,

I apologize for the recent lack of posts here on OFE. Thought I would mention there has been a lot of activity (link sharing) on recent developments on the Frack Facts Facebook page, also some new updates in the Frack Facts free newspaper (sign-up link over at the side of this page and also in its entirety on Facebook.)

Let me know if there is any problem with either of those links and I'll try again.
