@fatblackandgettinit: This place means so much to me. It's where I de-stress, meet community, or just recreate. Its where the city of Aurora gets its water. I've seen some many wildlife species here and enjoy the fresh air right outside the city. Unfortunately a new proposal, that is in its final stages, to drill less than a mile away from the reservoir puts all that at risk. Today I got to hangout with a couple community members that are fighting back! Stand with them and follow @savetheaurorareservoir to stay updated. This fight is far from over and we will need your help🙏🏾
Proof that Aurora is more diverse than the media has made it out to be. Otherwise they would NEVER try to do this here. I said what I said.

Don’t forget fracking caused the water to catch fire when lit in commerce city. This should be illegal

I paddle board, Aurora is a far drive from me but worth it because it’s far cleaner than other reservoirs in this half of the state.

Thank you for speaking up! I understand our need for energy, but we don't need to pollute land so close to our water and homes.

I live in weld county. There’s fracking near our land. We’ve have our water tested. It absolutely goes into the ground water.

As a south shore resident there’s no way we should have to pay these premium prices for AURORA to buy a house and then have to deal with our water being polluted by fracking

They are not fracking on the surface. 7000’ below most likely the water will be fine
