(a) Generator information as of April 1, 2018. —Compiled by Stephanie R. Meagher. Food & Water Watch promotes a wider ban. For example, an ordinance passed last year in Meriden states the following: "The application of natural gas waste or oil waste, whether or not such waste has received beneficial use determination or other approval for use by DEEP or any other regulatory body, on any road or real property located within the city for any purpose is prohibited." That goes beyond the current state moratorium, according to Food & Water Watch, and could ban materials such as drilling muds, brine mix and other wastes that result from non- fracking oil and gas drilling. CCM, which consulted with the con- struction industry and local leaders on its ordinance, says some towns are unable to obtain a qualified bidder for road projects because contractors are unable to guarantee their materials are free of banned substances. It says the ordinances have "para- lyzed many [municipalities] from per- forming any infrastructure improve- ments or road projects, effectively chilling the economic development environment for many communities." Food & Water Watch says that's a "dubious" claim lacking evidence. "Towns that have passed such strict ordinances banning fracking waste have not experienced the adverse con- sequences," Food & Water Watch said. Food & Water Watch says its ordi- nance language is similar to what's been passed in many areas of New York, and noted that some local boards that have approved the ordinance are CCM members. " … If towns adopt [CCM's] ordinance, they could leave themselves open to public health problems and costly reme- diation," said Jen Siskin, Food & Water Watch's local coordinator. >> Fracking continued "If municipalities are going to enact ordinances, they should be mindful of economic development implications."
