In March 2021, Eureka Resources announced plans to build a Marcellus Shale wastewater treatment facility in Dimock (Susquehanna County), Pennsylvania (see Eureka Building Marcellus Wastewater Recycling Plant in Dimock, PA). Both Susquehanna County and Dimock Township approved the Eureka project (see Town, County Approve Marcellus Wastewater Recycling Plant in Dimock). The Pennsylvania Dept. of Environmental Protection (DEP) has thus far issued one of two required permits. Seemingly out of nowhere, leftwing Democrat State Senator Katie Muth (from the Philadelphia area) filed an appeal with the DEP’s Environmental Hearing Board (EHB) attempting to block Eureka’s Dimock project (see SEPA Dem Attacks NEPA Marcellus Wastewater Recycling Plant in Dimock). EHB Judge Steven Beckman rejected Muth’s request last week for a temporary order blocking construction.
