Campaigners have held an "English tea party" outside a site in West Sussex where vitality organization Cuadrilla needs to test drill for oil and gas.
The challenge at the Lower Stumble site took after the setting up of a penetrating apparatus to exhaust for water tests, which occupants said surprised them.
The Environment Agency said it was considering an application from Cuadrilla for a waste water grant.
Cuadrilla said it had held an open meeting which 400 occupants went to.
Water quality tests
The organization is penetrating a 3,000ft (914m) vertical well and a 2,500ft (762m) flat bore toward the south of Balcombe, close Haywards Heath.
The tests will check whether oil or gas is there and can be removed however the campaigners, upheld by Friends of the Earth, trepidation fracking may happen at the site in future.
Fracking includes pumping a mixture of water and chemicals into shale rock at high weight to concentrate gas and oil.
Cuadrilla executive Leon Jennings said boring and testing of the water quality would happen amid the mid year.
"Thoughout that stage we will be upgrading the group on advancement and keeping the area chamber and so on completely educated of our operations," he said.
"We are content with the level of correspondence yet we will see what we can do to enhance that."
Radioactive
The Environment Agency (EA) said Cuadrilla had petitioned a license to oversee waste from the exploratory borehole to test for oil saves.
An open meeting is being done until 16 July.
The EA said the organization likewise planned to seek a grant to oversee waste water which may contain characteristically happening radioactive substances.
"The organization is not proposing to do any water driven breaking (fracking) as a component of this movement," it said.
Companions of the Earth said occupants would have further chances to raise worries about Cuadrilla's arrangements for Balcombe amid the license meetings.
"Regardless of the danger it postures to neighborhood groups, our surroundings and the atmosphere, the danger of fracking still hangs over nearby individuals over the UK," said representative Tony Bosworth.
"Shale gas and oil will do little to handle taking off fuel bills."
