We, the undersigned residents of the Town of Dryden, believe that high volume, slickwater horizontal hydrofracking for gas extraction threatens our water and our air.
Allowing this practice in our community will significantly endanger our health and well-being.
Hydrofracking is a heavily industrialized process that in surrounding states has snarled traffic and caused significant air, water and noise pollution, and severe damage to roads and other infrastructure. In many places it has had deleterious effects on tourism, hunting, fishing, agriculture and the local economy in general.
We urge the Town Board to ban slickwater horizontal hydrofracking in the Town of Dryden

The roads in Dryden can barely handle normal traffic as it is. Imagine heavy fracking trucks tearing everything up. Total disaster.
We moved here for the clean air and quiet. Not for industrial rigs running 24/7. Please stop this now.
Protect our land. Once the water is ruined there is no going back to fix it. Do the right thing.
Living right on the creek and I really dont want chemicals near my well. Why would we even consider this???
No fracking in dryden. Period.

Keep our water clean! We dont need this poison in our backyard. Dryden is a beautiful place and we need to keep it that way for our grandkids.
