To Whom it May Concern,

I am writing and submitting my official public comment regarding the proposed action for drilling and fracking in the Sespe Oil Field.

I am against any further fracking or extraction in this area, or any area, on our nation's soil. It is an invasive, polluting, and damaging process that impacts local and regional communities, especially those dependent on the watersheds in which they frack.

Fracking poses serious risks to aquifers and underground water sources. It is shady engineering at best as the pressure fracturing using toxic chemicals and fresh water is uncontrollable and we have no real idea just how much collateral damage it is causing. All we do know is that: it's scaring the land, it's contaminating underground water supplies, and is draining local aquifers since fresh water is used in the process of fracking.

Please cancel any further drilling or proposed fracking within the Sespe Oil Field. Thank you.
