PA DEP: We’re Not Close to Being Done with New Drilling Regs
You know what happens when you elect Big Government liberals to important positions, like governor? You get high taxes and onerous regulations across all industries--but particularly on the drilling industry. Welcome to Pennsylvania and the floundering administration of Gov. Tom Wolf and his PennFuture sidekicks who pretty much run the whole show for Wolf--including the PennFuture Sec. of the Dept. of Environmental Protection, John Quigley. PennFuture is an anti-drilling environmental group that Quigley used to work for prior to being appointed by Wolf to run the DEP, the agency in charge of drilling (how's that for ironic?). On a conference call yesterday Quigley said, of the current round of new drilling rules and regulations, you ain't seen nothin' yet. He plans to attack the Marcellus industry with even more onerous rules and regulations in the coming months and years of a (hopefully) one-term Wolf administration. Quigley is making his onerous list and checking it twice; gonna find out who's naughty and naughtier (there is no nice in fossil fuels, ya know)...
