Encana, Chesapeake Take Issue With EPA on FrackingEncana, Chesapeake Take Issue With EPA on Fracking

Encana, an Alberta, Canada-based natural gas company with wells in Pavillion, Wyo., said the EPA findings in deep wells were very different from those found in domestic water wells, and contended that this shows the natural gas in the bottom of the EPA's deep monitoring wells was caused by nature.

In its draft report, the EPA noted that, "The explanation best fitting the data for the deep monitoring wells is that constituents associated with hydraulic fracturing have been released into the Wind River drinking water aquifer at depths above the current production zone."

Encana is asking for independent reviews of the EPA's findings by third parties.
