All of the fracking fightback organizations have been de-fanged. Food and Water Watch is a direct mail money pit with a dumbed down website to be avoided. FracTrackerAlliance has a great mapping tool, but without the definitions for the Acronyms in the Map Key - you can't really read the maps. The OilandGasThreatMap is an offshoot of FracTrackerAlliance. Nobody responds to it's general e-mail and it's map is also unworkable in various ways.

The US Dept of Transportation Pipeline Hazardous Material Administration doesn't monitor or regulate the 240,000 miles of fracking pipeline in the USA. They do monitor all of the other pipelines out there - just not the pipelines coming from frack sites to larger systems or uploading sites.

The state Departments of Environmental Quality or Protection.... usually contain a collection of well intended bureaucrats with some science background, who run from inherent conflict on their mental in-line skates. Like all agency bureaucrats everywhere - they can only do what the corporate controlled globalist state legislatures tell them too. "Agency Initiative" is not a phrase in their vocabulary...

The NC DEQ has gone so far as to have removed reporting of environmental issues from their agency completely.

FL's Department of Environmental Protection is actually called the Department of Easy Permits. It has protected Mosaic Phosphate mines (fluoride producers), Big Sugar (killing the Everglades), and big ag chemical producers, and many more - for decades. Right f-ing now, 260 million gallons of radioactive waste from a Mosaic mine tailing pit breakout in 2016 - is flowing steadily towards Venice, FL and the rest of the SWFL coast heading south. 5G has already been slammed into that area on top of the carcinogenic smart grid in 2012 - so when that radioactive ground water hits - cancer alley here we come. Like the retirees always say, Florida is a great place to die: God's waiting room...
