CREDO
The Fort Worth Coalition for a Reformed Drilling Ordinance (CREDO) is made up of individuals and groups who are concerned that gas production in Fort Worth is proceeding without adequate consideration of long-term impacts

CREDO believes the City is obligated to assure the safety and well being of its citizens above all other considerations

CREDO calls for a City-imposed moratorium on permits for gas wells and pipelines until:
  1. Plans are in place to accomodate the total impact of urban gas production over the life of the activity
  2. Post-depletion planning is in place to protect future residents
  3. Planning for gas production is integrated with the city's Comprehensive Plan and other appropriate plans
  4. Regulations are in place to assure safe operation of the total gas production activity

 Palo Pinto Explosion
Drilling for and producing gas creates noise, uses lots of water, generates toxic waste, and emits known carcinogens. Of those, the city regulates only noise.

 Dramatic increase in truck traffic will damage roads and increase emissions. Fort Worth does not have a clear method to establish blame and to assess costs of road damage leaving the repair costs up to taxpayers.

 Pipelines carry their own risks as demonstrated by this explosion in 2005. As pipelines age they fail. Should they be in residential neighborhoods? (File Photo)
