Moncton Mayor George LeBlanc has written a letter to the Minister of Natural Resources expressing his concerns about news a drilling company may have been illegally drilling too close to Turtle Creek and within the Turtle Creek water supply's protected zone.
"It's a little disconcerting to say the least," LeBlanc said yesterday. "In my view, the watershed is a sacred area. It's very vital and important to us."
Meanwhile, a spokesman with the Department of Environment said yesterday it was too early to say if an offence had been committed after a drilling company was ordered to stop bituminous shale drilling near the East Branch of Turtle Creek earlier this week.
