The researchers sampled sediments and porewaters from a lake downstream from two facilities that treat fracking wastewater in Pennsylvania. Bill Burgos and colleagues at Penn State, Colorado State and Dartmouth wanted to see what impact this strategy of treating and releasing fracking wastewater might be having. The facilities that collect the water provide only limited treatment before releasing it into surface waters. A Pennsylvania report estimates that in 2015, 10,000 unconventional oil and gas wells in the Marcellus Shale produced 1.7 billion gallons of wastewater. Although the technique has resulted in a shift away from coal, which could reduce greenhouse gas emissions, it produces large amounts of wastewater containing radioactive material, salts, metals, endocrine-disrupting chemicals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that could pose risks to the environment and human health. The method’s market share is likely to increase even further. In 2015, the unconventional oil and gas extraction method known as hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” accounted for more than one-half of oil production and two-thirds of gas production in America, according to the U.S. The study appears in the American Chemical Society’s journal, Environmental Science & Technology. Researchers now report that treating the wastewater and releasing it into surface waters has led to the contamination of a Pennsylvania watershed with radioactive material and endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Hydraulic fracturing has enabled a domestic oil and gas boom in the U.S., but its rapid growth has raised questions about what to do with the billions of gallons of wastewater that result. Release of Treated Wastewater from Hydraulic Fracturing Contaminates Lake The meeting minutes will be posted on the e-Manifest Advisory Board Website or may be obtained from the docket at. The e-Manifest Advisory Board will prepare meeting minutes summarizing its recommendations to the Agency approximately 90 days after the meeting. You may obtain electronic copies of these documents, and certain other related documents as they become available at (search for Docket EPA-HQ-OLEM-2017-0368) and the e-Manifest Advisory Board Website. In addition, the Agency may provide additional background documents as the materials become available. The EPA’s background paper, related supporting materials, charge/questions to the Advisory Board, the Advisory Board roster (i.e., members attending this meeting), and the meeting agenda will be available by approximately late August 2017. Information regarding a webcast of the meeting will be available at. EST at the EPA Conference Center, Lobby Level, One Potomac Yard (South Bldg.), 2777 S. The meeting will be held from approximately 9:00 a.m. Specifically, the Advisory Board will provide recommendations to the EPA on the process the EPA should use to register and activate user accounts and electronic signature agreements (ESAs) for the e-Manifest system.

The Agency will hold a three-day Hazardous Waste Electronic Manifest System Advisory Board meeting on September 26–28, 2017, to address user registration and account activation issues that need resolution prior to launching the e-Manifest system. Manifest users who intend to track their hazardous waste shipments electronically or access manifest data from the e-Manifest system as soon as it becomes available will be required to register with the EPA prior to system launch. The EPA is on schedule to launch the hazardous waste electronic manifest (e-Manifest) system in June 2018.
