Most M-U Drillers “Welcome” New EPA Regulation of O&G Emissions

It is obvious MDN is out of step with the industry it supports and promotes. We think the federal EPA's announcement on Tuesday that it will draft and adopt new emissions regulations aimed at reducing methane (i.e. natural gas) emissions is clearly unconstitutional (see EPA Launches Massive Power Grab, Targets O&G Methane Emissions). It is the individual states who retain the right to regulate oil and gas. EPA's move is a backdoor way for the federal government to nationalize control of all oil and gas drilling. However, it seems we stand alone in our view. Most oil and gas drillers, even those in the Marcellus/Utica, are endorsing the Biden EPA's aggressive new regulatory change.
