Title: Recreation restricted at Ohio forest due to drilling
Post by: Billy Mumphrey on May 12, 2013, 05:02:58 PM
From the WFMJ web-site:

I thought we were told that any and all oil/gas drilling in parks/forests would be far away from the general public and would not impede recreational use?

Click on the story then go to the National Forest web site, just as I did, and hopefully your questions will be answered there.   But I contend that you don't care to find the answer, your intent was to take a cheap shot at the gas industry.

I am just asking a question based on what promoters of drilling in parks/forests stated at public hearings when questioned about such drilling. Are you then contending WFMJ took a cheap shot at the gas industry as well by posting this story on their web-site?

Looks like the only one who is complaining is Billy, not even one comment is registered on the media site but on MVI, we must have a presense here.
