Fracking: Oil Shale and Kentucky Gas Association

Fracking: Underneath the cracked shell Recently in the Coal State, aka Kentucky, a new way of getting oil has come. Fracking has become more and more popular in the US and in the world. Fracking consists of drilling, and cracking into the ground vertically and horizontally. This new method uses water pressure and thousands of chemicals to pump the oil to the surface of the land. As a resident in Kentucky, I leave around some empty land out in the country side. Recently, I heard about KGA (Kentucky Gas Association) has bought the land around my property. The drilling started in June of 2013. At first, I didn’t know what was happening; I called KGA and asked what the company was doing. They explained that they found oil reservoirs around my property and they have commenced the Fracking process. At first I didn’t think anything of it until, my water started tasting funny. It looked clear, but the taste was off. After a while I had become sick of the water, so I went to a local grocery store and bought bottled water. My skin became irritated and my eyes burnt. I had no idea of what was going on. I went to my local clinic to make sure that nothing was seriously wrong. After, some tests a week or so later they found Hydrochloric acid, and formaldehyde residue. The doctors told me my lungs, eyes, and skin burnt because they were irritated. After, a few questions I found out that:
Hydrochloric acid is corrosive to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Short term exposure fitted my symptoms. They included: eye, nose, and repertory tract irritation. Also, it creates burns, ulceration, and scarring.
Formaldehyde inhalation causes: repertory symptoms, eye, nose, and throat irritation. http://www.epa.gov/ttnatw01/hlthef/hydrochl.html http://www.epa.gov/ttnatw01/hlthef/formalde.html

I asked how I could have gotten it since I have not changed my routine lately. They asked if anything has been wrong with my water or outside air. I explained that some fumes and dust
