PA Antis Want DEP Hearing on 3.9-Mile Rd to Shale Pad in Loyalsock

Three anti-shale drilling groups---the PA Council of Trout Unlimited, the Keystone Trails Association, and the Responsible Drilling Alliance---have requested the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) hold a hearing on the Chapter 105 permit requested for a 3.9-mile shale gas access road and staging area proposed by PA General Energy in Gamble and Cascade Townships, Lycoming County. The aim of their request is not to elicit information or express concerns that can be addressed to achieve a better outcome; rather, it is to flood the hearing with bombastic charges in hopes of blocking the project altogether.
