$Calvin Tillman at Stop the Frack Attack http://www.gdacoalition.org A video by Scott Cannon Stop the Frack Attack was the clear message sent by some 5,000 protesters at the first national demonstration against hydraulic fracturing held in front of the Capitol Building July 28. Under a blistering hot sun the fractivists, as they are known, from 30 states and Australia demanded an end to the new process for deep shale gas exploitation that harms public health, water, and air. The opinions expressed in this video do not necessarily reflect the views of Gas Drilling Awareness Coalition.

Wolf from Pennsylvanians calling for deliberate action on methane standards to protect public health and environment On the heels of Gov. Tom Wolfs bold move in proposing a suite of standards to cut harmful methane pollution from the oil and gas industry, representatives of the Clean Air Council, Sierra Club, Moms Clean Air Force, League of Conservation Voters, and Gas Drilling Awareness Coalition will deliver petitions signed by thousands of Pennsylvanians calling for deliberate action by the Wolf administration to take these standards from proposal to reality. Methane is vented, flared and leaked into the atmosphere alongside other toxic co-pollutants that contribute to asthma, lung and heart disease. The potent greenhouse gas is also warming the planet at an alarming rate. Gov. Wolfs proposed four-point plan to cut methane pollution will cover both new and existing sources of emissions, including the many thousands of wells across the commonwealth; processing facilities; and gathering, transmission, and distribution lines.

The proposed new Clean Air Act rule would lead to significant, cost-effective reductions in methane emissions and other health-harming air pollutants that endanger nearby communities. As part of today’s action, to inform a supplemental proposal, EPA is seeking comment on additional sources of methane to further strengthen emission controls and increase reductions from oil and gas operations. EPA is issuing the proposal in response to President Biden’s Executive Order on Protecting Public Health and the Environment and Restoring Science to Tackle the Climate Crisis. As global leaders convene at this pivotal moment in Glasgow for COP26, it is now abundantly clear that America is back and leading by example in confronting the climate crisis with bold ambition,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “With this historic action, EPA is addressing existing sources from the oil and natural gas industry nationwide, in addition to updating rules for new sources, to ensure robust and lasting cuts in pollution across the country. By building on existing technologies and encouraging innovative new solutions, we are committed to a durable final rule that is anchored in science and the law, that protects communities living near oil and natural gas facilities, and that advances our nation’s climate goals under the Paris Agreement.” One third of the warming from greenhouse gases occurring today is due to human-caused emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas that traps about 30 times as much heat as carbon dioxide over 100 years, and sharp cuts over the next decade will have a near-term beneficial impact on the climate. In the United States, the oil and natural gas industry is the largest industrial source of methane emissions, emitting more methane than the total emissions of all greenhouse gases from 164 countries combined. Oil and natural gas operations also emit smog-forming volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and toxic air pollutants such as benzene that harm public health.

Cheers and clapping filled the county council meeting room on the first floor of the courthouse after the three members of the board, Chairman Larry Newman, Anthony Palischak and William Harris, declined to approve UGI Energy Services Inc.s application for a special exception to construct a utility building and yard. Solicitor Stephen Menn said the board members could not comment on the reason for the denial because UGI may appeal the decision. UGI now has 30 days to appeal to county court. UGI sought zoning approval to build the compressor station at a site off North Ridge Lane beyond Fire Cut Road, just across the Kingston Township border. The station would have pressurized natural gas coming from wells in the northeast counties of Pennsylvania. UGI intended for the gas to be distributed through the Transco interstate pipeline and connect to an existing system to customers in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area. UGI representatives said the compressor station would comply with or exceed U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards for emissions. UGI said the project would bring lower-cost natural gas from within the state to local customers. But opponents said any emissions are too many. At a county zoning board public hearing Aug. 8, opponents voiced concerns including health effects, quality-of-life issues like traffic and dust, and the potential to affect property values. Ray Gustave of West Wyoming took issue with UGI defining the site as remote, saying it is 1½ miles from the populated area and 2 miles from the center of town.
