I just like many landowners in Wyoming County is disappointed in Chesapeake and the Wyoming County Landowners Association.  I'm not certain why the association made that announcement last fall about non-members getting the same leases as their members.  I would pass on that I believe it is in all non-members best interests to hold off for the same if not a better lease agreements.  I'd be curious to know what is the total acreage which has not signed with any company.  That might be used as leverage with Chesapeake.  That leverage could be used to give Chesapeake 'our' own deadline so to speak.  Either way, I believe patience is in order.  Yesterday I spoke with Mike Burkholder, land man representing Chesapeake who tells me that he is waiting to hear from Chesapeake on what if in fact anything he could offer to folks who are not yet signed up.  He of course tells me that this will be based upon what township you live in.  I only have twelve and half acres, but I do know close neighbors, one has 90 the other over 100 who have not signed.  I could only re-iterate patience.  Maybe the creator of the site could be the initiator of finding out how much has not been signed up, and a second land owners association could be created.  Any thoughts?   Lastly the phone number of the Chesapeake office in Towanda is 570-265-2565 or 6525, can't quite remember.  Thanx, Mark S.
