Moreover, the industry has created over half a million new jobs in the past decade. <br /><br />The shale boom is causing an unprecedented level of expansion in the United States, and is providing economic benefits to state and local communities. Various regions now have producing assets in the nation’s largest shale reservoirs. Domestic oil production has grown by 10 percent since 2008, and the import share of U.S. oil has lowered to 45 percent from 65 percent in 2005. Furthermore, an article in USA Today reported that the economic growth of the industry is approaching $1 billion a day, and is preventing the U.S. from another possible recession. <br /><br />Because this trend is expected to continue, a study by Wood MacKenzie claims that oil and natural gas production could create an additional one million new jobs by 2018. TAP Management and similar companies are determined to add to continued economic growth by increasing the number of drilling projects in the United States.5125276000http://texog.com/blog/2012/07/09/fracking-could-be-the-key-to-energy-independence/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4664957094233317169.post-51791058334948759992012-07-20T04:56:15.176-04:002012-07-20T04:56:15.176-04:00With marine life it also affected the taste of pub...With marine life it also affected the taste of public drinking water supplies.Electrical Contractor Texashttp://www.sconservices.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4664957094233317169.post-60520440615370221312012-07-19T18:42:58.820-04:002012-07-19T18:42:58.820-04:00I believe Hopey and the Post Gazette originally pu...I believe Hopey and the Post Gazette originally published a story in 2009 blaming the oil and gas industry for this event.

My great great great grandfather Asa Miller, had a mill on Dunkard Creek in the second half of the 1800s and early 1900s. My grandmother was born in the house at the mill and was married in the living room of that house as well. I have not been over there searching for the place since 2003 but you have reminded me I need a trip there again.Kelly Jean McEnteehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14272496361472312719noreply@blogger.com
