Barbed Wire Fence Surrounds Dangerous Fort Worth Chesapeake Energy Pond

You are looking at a manmade, well, Chesapeake Energy made, pond in east Fort Worth, located due east of the intersection of Brentwood Stair Road and Cooks Lane, about a third of a mile south of Interstate 30.

East of the pond, to the right in the view you're looking at, there is a Chesapeake Energy Barnett Shale natural gas drilling pad.

I watched this operation through its various stages, because it is on the way to Village Creek Natural Historical Area, that being a walking zone I frequent infrequently.

Along Cooks Lane I watched a lot of pipeline being buried. I assume the pipeline is carrying natural gas from the Chesapeake wells in the area. Is it odorized?

Why does the sign on the barbed wire topped chain link fence that surrounds the pond have emergency numbers on it? What is the potential emergency that could arise from this pond?

This pond has seemed odd from the first time I saw it. When it is under blue sky the water has an off color, as if the blue is muted and murky, not in a muddy way, but in a milky way. Under this morning's gray sky the water had a less murky, milky look.

Is this fracking water? Is this the same type toxic chemical laden water that killed 17 cows in Louisiana, dead within an hour of drinking water from a Chesapeake pond.

To the west of the pond, between the water and Cooks Lane, sits the pipeline mechanism you see in the photo. Is it water going through these pipes? Or natural gas? Where did the water that is in the pond come from? What is in the pond that necessitates surrounding it with a barbed wire chain link fence? The pipeline mechanism is not fenced off, so, apparently it poses no emergency type danger, unlike the pond.

Now that there is a new Marshall in town, as in Dr. Al Armendariz has been appointed Region 6 Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, we might be getting some answers to some questions. Like how do we fix the Dish, Texas Barnett Shale natural gas ecological damage?
