President Obama signed an executive order Friday establishing a high-level task force charged with coordinating federal oversight of domestic natural gas development.
The task force is charged with ensuring that rapidly growing efforts to tap vast natural gas supplies in the country’s shale formations, which require advanced drilling techniques including “fracking,” are “safe and responsible.”
The order seeks to find a balance between encouraging expanded domestic natural gas development, a position Obama has touted in a series of speeches in recent months, and ensuring that the administration protects the public.
“[I]t is vital that we take full advantage of our natural gas resources, while giving American families and communities confidence that natural and cultural resources, air and water quality, and public health and safety will not be compromised,” the order says.
I wouldn’t trust that order as far as I could throw the white house with one arm. every previous order that destroyer has issues has had the effect of damaging and curtailing American energy production and doubling or tripling energy prices. Don’t fall for the same old lies and mis-direction from the Soros/Obama ream.
