It is up to the EPA and State agencies to enforce the law. Get active and put pressure on the local politicians!
You will always have damage to the environment in these type of drilling and mining operations. However, the damage can be mitigated by proper containment and treatment of resulting drilling muds, tailings and waste water. There are also more modern methods of solids separation and membrane filtration for the waste fracking fluid solutions. It is worth the extra $$ from the resulting profit bonanza to protect our precious water supply. The proximity of the East Coast Mega-opolis demands it.
