3. INFORMATION SHARING REGARDING HYDRAULIC FRACTURING :
Commonly referred to as “fracking”, hydraulic fracturing involves the use of water pressure
to create fractures in rock that allow the oil and natural gas it contains to escape and flow out.
The oil and natural gas is drawn up to a well on the surface, where it is processed and refined
for market.
Please note there are no current or pending applications at this time that have been
submitted to the City of Eagle that pertain to this subject matter. The developing law is not
entirely clear what role the City of Eagle might play, if any, in the regulation of fracking.
Presentations will be made by representatives from Idaho Department of Lands, Citizens
Allied for Integrity and Accountability (CAIA), and the Idaho Petroleum Council. Each will
be allotted a maximum of (30) minutes to provide information on the subject of hydraulic
fracturing in Idaho and/or the City of Eagle. There will be no opportunity for rebuttal at
tonight’s meeting. Representatives are welcome to contact members of the public at the
conclusion of the meeting to further exchange information.
The general public will have the opportunity to comment on the information that has been
provided. Three (3) minutes will be allowed for individual comment.
4. ADJOURNMENT:
The City will make reasonable accommodations for anyone attending this meeting who require special assistance for hearing,
physical or other impairments. Please contact the City Clerk’s Office at (208) 939-6813 at least 24 hours in advance of the
meeting date and time.
