answer text <p>The Environment Agency has set out its regulatory controls over leakage of methane from shale gas exploration in its draft technical guidance.

The Environment Agency is assessing its regulation of full production facilities and the expectation is that the requirement for 100% containment will remain in place.</p> more like this
