and yes, sure there are small spills. The worst offenders are the ones 'who worked in the industry, as truck drivers, vac truck operators, they are the ones who will cut corners and do stupid crap. So maybe you worked for a shady place or were one yourself to think that.

The government can enforce a policy but if the accountability isn't there then what's the point. Who do the worst offenders work for? They are part of the process of fraccing and if they have a small spill above ground then it is highly likely that it will seep into the drinking water that is used by farmers.
I don't doubt that most spills are reported to the government, but what is the possibility that from the time that it is reported to the time the spill is cleaned up that the groundwater is already effected? It doesn't take a great mind to realize chemicals like Glycol will seep through the soil at a high rate of speed and taint the well water but looking at your previous posts it seems that their is no possible way that Fraccing could have any negative effect on a well, it has got to be the age of the well.
