Are they doing any fracking in the area? Apparently fracking causes real problems.

Their is no fracking there, , I live 90 km north of there in Uralla shire. Their water storage has flow in one area coming past a former gold mine, this is the reason for it.

 My first thought was  .. Old Gold mining in the area?

Not a very nice situation, for the people of the area

I am led to believe, that arsenic can be removed from water, with special filtration
