A Town Commissioner of DISH TX has called for a Congressional investigation of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and the Railroad Commission regarding their handling of complaints in regards to the drilling of the Barnett Shale. Town leaders and residents have charged the TCEQ knew about the air quality and dangers present in the town and have done nothing to solve the problem. A chief engineer in the air quality division of the TCEQ didn't "appreciate the characterization".
Sorry TCEQ. Denton County residents don't appreciate having to breathe garbage that could potentially lead to emphysema if it isn't dealt with. We really don't care about your personal feelings.

I attended the meeting and posted about it HERE. The TCEQ plans a 7-day intensive study financed by industry and conducted by a crony company. Residents let them know that would not fly.
The meeting was dramatic because there are MANY residents who are sick, some seriously, from these toxins.
