Finally, I urge that consideration be made in future rule-making to establish bonding requirements
commensurate to responding to and mitigating the long-term potential environmental and public-health
damage that might occur within hydraulic fracturing processes. Current public protections in this regard
– as Montana history amply and sadly demonstrates – are inadequate and ineffective.
Thank you for considering my comments.
Sincerely,
Peter D. Fox
