Because of the recent interest in the Marcellus Shale in PA, there has been a significant increase in drilling of deep natural gas production wells.

Getting Your Water Tested – Why? The Need for Baseline Testing



Getting Your Water Tested – Why?



In Pennsylvania, there are no statewide regulations that truly guarantee that a private well is properly constructed and that the water from the well is potable, i.e., drinkable. In Pennsylvania and other states, a private well is not defined as a public water supply system and not regulated by the PADEP or EPA. There are some counties in Pennsylvania that do provide some regulatory oversight with respect to the siting, construction, and…

New York City Says NO to Marcellus Gas Production

Marcellus shale gas production promises a bountiful supply of domestically produced clean natural gas for millions of American consumers. Why then, is the city of New York adamantly opposed to gas drilling and what impact will their resistance have on Pennsylvanians?
