Re: Mt. Enterprise Fault causing earthquakes

My dad lives in Garrison, TX which is six wiles south of Timpson where the quakes' epicenters have been.  There is a fault line from Mt. Enterprise to Timpson.  They have had different events throughout the years in this area (80 square mile area).  My dad seems to think it is caused by fracking but you will not feel the tremor 75 miles away like this last one was.  I think this last one wass 3-5 miles below the surface...or maybe it was the first one.  I do not know what the effects of fracking has on loosening pressures on this fault are.
