PA Senate Passes 2 Important Bills Affecting EHB; Unfortunately DOA
Far-left environmentalist wackos have learned how to abuse the legal system in the U.S. in their attempts to block fossil energy. One of the places they excel in abusing the system is in Pennsylvania. When the PA Dept. of Environmental Protection (DEP) issues a new permit for a project the left opposes, they appeal the decision to a special court established in PA to hear appeals of DEP decisions, called the Environmental Hearing Board (EHB). The left tries to fool the EHB into ruling against a DEP decision by claiming there is "new information" that should be considered, information that has come to light since the original DEP decision. It's a sleazy legal tactic. Senate Bill (SB) 198, introduced by PA Sen. Camera Bartolotta (R-Washington), closes that loophole in the legal process.
