Using dangerous technologies at US land leaves us high and dry

I can understand those people, who were extremely angered about the chemical spill that's deprived 300,000 West Virginians of clean tap water for 4 days (www.weather.com/news/chemical-spill-leaves-thousands-without-water-). But I can never understand why they don't blame local chemical industry for using so dangerous technologies at our land!
Just imagine! Such picturesque state as West Virginia, with its deep rivers and streams that cut through lush valleys, has left without water after toxic agents, used at Charleston chemical plant, had been seeped into the Elk River!
And what horrible disaster may happen if toxic substances, which are resulted from notorious fracking technology using, turn into the ground waters, eh? In fact, the battle for usage of this method of extracting shale gas here is conducted hourly...
