Bill overview
This bill, the Safe Hydration is an American Right in Energy Development Act of 2019, aims to protect underground sources of drinking water near hydraulic fracturing (fracking) operations. It requires companies conducting fracking to test these water sources for contamination and report the results to the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA will then maintain a publicly accessible database of these testing results, ensuring transparency and accountability for potential impacts of fracking on drinking water supplies. The bill also establishes specific testing requirements based on the history of fracking activity at a site.
