Town Council opposes fracking

Posted on March 29, 2012March 28, 2012 by Staff

The Chapel Hill Town Council passed a resolution on Monday night voicing their opposition to hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking.

Fracking is a method of extracting natural gas in which a mixture of water, sand and a mix of toxic chemicals are injected in the ground to break up rock formations to release natural gas.

The resolution was passed 7-2, with Gene Pease and Matt Czajkowski dissenting.
