Your arrogance and ignorance is shameless. For your information, tight gas reservoirs are not aquifers. Furthermore, it is rounded quartz sand grains that are pumped into the fractures to keep them open, not non degradable, toxic carcinogens like the waste product from PV, chip and electronic manufacturing. You look into health and cancer rates proximal to high tech industrial areas, especially semiconductor manufacturing:

Unfortunately faccing involves pumping chemicals into the ground along with water and quartz. I suggest you do some research. There was an oil company refinery in California that contaminated the entire ground water supplies of a big city with this very chemical. I don't blame the State of New York cracking down on this process.

There is no room for error.

May I suggest you do some research at The Oil Drum: theoildrum.com on the process. There is a number of excellent papers on the subject by petroleum, NG engineers that work in this area.
