Trump administration seeks to repeal Obama fracking rule
By Timothy Cama - 07/24/17 10:16 AM EDT

The Trump administration is proposing to completely repeal Obama-era standards governing hydraulic fracturing on federal land.

The proposal from the Interior Department’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is due to be published Tuesday in the Federal Register.

The landmark 2015 regulation set standards in areas such as disclosure of fracking chemicals and integrity of well casing.
....

Publication Tuesday of the fracking rule repeal proposal will kick off a 60-day period when the agency will gather comments from the public. At that point, it will make any necessary changes to the rule before publishing a final version.

It's hard to believe it's not already in LBN, but a search came up empty-handed.

1. Because Oklahoma doesn't have half enough earthquakes already.

3. As soon as I read the headline I thought the same thing.

Ok gets more earthquakes than we do here (San Diego, CA). Ca residents can at least still get insurance but I heard the same isn't true for OK.

2. Because Trump cannot sleep at night unless he undoes every single thing Obama ever did as prez.

No matter how harmful the undoing of it would be.

4. Somebody needs to frak his ass....

A bigger douche bag on earth does not exist, as far as I am concerned.

It all reminds me of a sci-fi movie, where alien imposters in human looking bodies are doing everything they can to raise the temperature of earth, and cause the extermination of human beings on this planet, so that they could take the planet for their own purposes, i.e colonization.

Nothing he does is helping the human species have any sort of forward looking possibilities of future generations having any sort of reasonable life, liberty or pursuit of happiness.

Even the most ruthless Capitalists in the Industrial age eventually took massive and generous financial actions to benefit future generations, with endowments towards education, arts and sciences, and other wonderful contributions to society.

This raging bastard will never ever have a moment of self awareness that will benefit anyone or anything other than his grifter family, and some of those that help him perpetual his shallow and selfish existence.

Mortallity is a bitch, and he will die a lonely man, and the object of justified hatred by countless souls who deserve better.

Money does not buy you grace.
