The case bounced around various courts and is now back in federal court in Scranton, PA where a judge will decide whether shale drilling is a "project" under regulations that govern the DRBC. Anti-fossil fuel haters at the National Resources Defense Council (aka Rockefeller family) are terrified the judge is about to rule against the DRBC (and them), and so has filed a friend of the court brief to try and snow (or intimidate) the judge.
