CAPP pushes fracking standards, Amid rising opposition, concerns about hydraulic fracturing’s effect on water, land by Dina O”Meara, June 26, 2012, Calgary Herald
“The challenge we have in all of this is any industrial activity has a certain amount of risk associated with it,” said Dave Collyer, president of CAPP. “So the job that we’ve all got is to find a way to mitigate that risk and make sure that we drive that risk down to as low a level as we reasonably can.” … “As we contemplated (the practices), we knew that there was a range of maturity in terms of the jurisdictions with respect to the regulatory environment,” said David Pryce, association vice-president of operations. … Disclosure of fracturing components already is required by the Alberta regulator, but accessing the in-formation is a complicated process, said Bob Curren, with the Energy Resources Conservation Board. Producers have to submit the composition of fracturing fluids used during drilling within 30 days of completing a well, but are not mandated to submit the data in electronic format, he explained.
