from Dec, 2013 in searching for more info this morning - a recipe for disaster, especially in earthquake prone areas

Just north of Porter Ranch, Aliso Canyon is known for its hiking and equestrian trails, but the fact that SoCal Gas Company (among other operators) has drilled 82 wells - many two miles deep - is lesser known. Six of these wells are wastewater injection wells where massive amounts of carcinogenic fracking wastewater are disposed. It's these types of wells that have been linked to earthquakes.


while I'm glad they have "temporarily controlled" this well, the industry as a whole needs to be better regulated - "self reporting" is a joke
