Tom Alexander tells CHSJ News he doesn't buy the Conservation Council's theory that a thousand gas wells drilled in a year would use the same amount of water as two cities the size of Fredericton.
He says it's a stretch for them to start talking about a thousand wells when he says we are years from drilling a dozen wells.
Alexander says this province does not have the infrastructure to dispose of wastewater right now adding it is safe and in Arkansas they are recycling 99 per cent of the wastewater there.
