answer text

The British Geological Survey (BGS) is surveying the current distribution of methane concentrations in UK groundwater, focusing on areas where aquifers are underlain by shale units that may be exploited for shale gas. The BGS website provides a summary of the methane baseline results up to April 2014 and links to regional summaries: <a href="http://www.bgs.ac.uk/research/groundwater/shaleGas/methaneBaseline/results.html" target="_blank">www.bgs.ac.uk/research/groundwater/shaleGas/methaneBaseline/results.html</a> Depending on the geology of a particular site and the pre-existing data available, the environmental regulator (the Environment Agency in England) could also require such monitoring by the operator before a site became operational.
