| Frac Job Underway In Fort Chesapeake On Wednesday |
So, I walked inside the notorious walls.
That day, January 8, I saw the Frac Job was due to start January 10.
In the photo, from a couple hours ago, you can see that there is now a lot going on inside the walls of Fort Chesapeake.
It really is quite astonishing to see how much equipment is brought in and put in place. It looks as if it would be a logistics nightmare.
Whatever it is that is involved with Fracking, it is very noisy.
Can you see that grayish discoloration in the photo, above the white piece of equipment? That looks like exhaust fumes? It is rising from what looked to me to be the location of the hole that was poked in the ground, so the Fracking Water can reach the Barnett Shale and Frac it.

| Inside The Walls Of Fort Chesapeake On Sunday |
With the noise of what sounded like a lot of engines running one would think I would have at least detected diesel fumes.
I have no idea how long this Fracking is going to last. This is totally different than my other nearby Chesapeake Energy well operation.
That time there were days of long lines of trucks. I assumed they were bringing in the Fracking Water.
Now I"m thinking maybe those long lines of trucks were taking away the used contaminated Fracking Water.
The first drill pad in my neighborhood is closer to the Trinity River, with the current water sucking pipeline running right by that previous Chesapeake operation. I saw the pipeline today, running from the Trinity River, under Randol Mill Road and then in a creek bed, heading up the hill, past my first neighborhood Chesapeake drilling site, then to Fort Chesapeake.
So, I guess I have the long line of trucks part of this operation to look forward too.
