A group of people, who live by the Loch Lomond water supply, want Common Council to ensure the safety of their water after they’ve spotted numerous helicopters flying over the lakes.
Dr. Paula Tippett has written a letter to Council concerned these helicopters are carrying geo surveying equipment that could be exploring the possiblity of fracking for shale gas.
Tippett tells CHSJ news the aircraft have been flying over the lakes daily for a couple of weeks. She says the government has told her they’re just landing at the airport but Tippett wants to make sure councillors will protect the water supply from any harm.
Council is scheduled to address the letter tonight.
