WPX wants to remove water tanks ("water buffaloes") which they had gifted to two families in Franklin Forks PA, which have severely contaminated water.
Their water was fine before gas drilling came to town.
The delivered water to these families for 18 months,
but stopped in September of this year.
Now they want the tanks back.
The can't even prove they own them.
The are attached to the house in sheds built around them.
The families will have to spend $2,000 just to replace the equipment.
This does not include the costs for water deliveries!
Let's start with some attorney correspondence:
