PA Dems Continue False Narrative on Bonding Rates for O&G Wells

Last summer Pennsylvania House Bill (HB) 2644 was passed into law, becoming Act 96 of 2022 (see New PA Act 96 Helps Boost Plugging Orphan Wells – Left Goes Nuts). Part of the new law keeps the power to raise bonding amounts for conventional wells with the legislature rather than allowing PA’s unelected Democrat bureaucrats in the bowels of the DEP’s Environmental Quality Board (EQB) from arbitrarily raising rates to punish drillers. The radical Democrats who control the PA House (with a razor-thin, one-seat majority) introduced a bill a few weeks ago attempting to undo Act 96 (see PIOGA Responds to Bill Raising Bonding Rates for Conventional Wells). Using complicit media outlets, the radical Dems continue to spread their false narrative (propaganda) in an attempt to undo the common sense law.
