Fracking opponents seek moratorium in Ohio

From the Associated Press: "Ohio is the latest state where opponents are pushing a ban on a form of drilling that injects chemicals into shale to release natural gas.

Democratic state Sen. Michael Skindell of suburban Cleveland introduced a bill Tuesday calling for a moratorium on hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” to await results of a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency study of potential environmental hazards.

Ohio would join New York and New Jersey among states above the fuel rich Marcellus shale if it imposes the ban."
