Our livelihoods and community health depend on good jobs. We cannot hope to keep our most precious asset, our youth, here without good job opportunities, and we are losing them. Our growth has all but halted, our manufacturing has disappeared and our schools are dropping enrollment.

Fortunately, we now have an opportunity to turn it all around with natural gas, an industry already creating tremendous economic advancements in neighboring counties. Unfortunately, it may never happen here unless we act now to SAVE OUR FUTURE!

While natural gas drilling is already safely taking place in most of Pennsylvania under regulations developed by the state and the Susquehanna River Basin Commission, we have been waiting an agonizing three years for the Delaware River Basin Commission to develop regulations to allow it here. Draft regulations have finally been released and public hearings are scheduled for February 22 in Honesdale and Liberty. These regulations are flawed and only we can change them.
