Welcome
Welcome to the Hydraulic Fracturing Disclosure and Education websites. These websites are being
hosted by the Ground Water Protection Council (GWPC) and the
Interstate Oil and Gas Compact
Commission (IOGCC). This website provides a central location for public
and industry to communicate and relay information on the chemicals used during
the process of hydraulic fracturing of oil or gas wells. The FracFocus website
provides impartial and balanced education tools to the public on the topic
of hydraulic fracturing.
The GWPC and IOGCC are uniquely suited to host these websites due to their impartial
nature and ties to the regulated and regulatory community. This website provides
a means for industry to voluntarily supply hydraulic fracturng chemical data in a consistent and
centralized location. This open process assists both public and industry by
supplying a centralized repository for the data and removing similar fragmented
efforts from around the web.
These websites provide the following:
- A means to Search for voluntarily submitted chemical records
by State/County, Operator and Well.
- An Education and Informative site for the public and
industry on Hydraulic Fracturing Chemicals and the processes used in Hydraulic Fracturing of wells.
FracFocus has instituted a Help Desk to address any issues you may have in using the system. You can call the Help Desk and leave a voice mail at 405-607-6808. For faster response please send and email to fracfocus@gwpc.org.
