Radicals Demand DRBC Vote to Institute Full, Permanent Frack Ban

In September, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit ruled that the state senators who represent Pennsylvania landowners living in the Delaware River Basin, primarily in Wayne and Pike counties in the northeastern corner of Pennsylvania, don't have "standing" to sue the Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) to overturn its ban on fracking (see 3rd Circuit Buys Anti Argument, Blocks PA from Suing DRBC). The DRBC has proposed a permanent ban but has never actually conducted a final vote to permanently ban fracking in the Basin (see Governors from PA-NY-DE Vote to Ban Fracking in Dela. River Basin). The left, sensing it may lose either the Pennsylvania or New York governorships (or both), is pushing DRBC members to take a final vote to permanently ban fracking in the basin--before it loses power.
