Letters to the Editor

A great way to get your voice heard regarding deep gas drilling is to write a letter to the editor. Just like these folks did:

Another way is to contact your local and state representatives. Pittsburgh City Council is getting more informed about the impacts of drilling

And the best way to keep them working on your concerns is to let them know what you think.

KDKA

Last Sunday a few members of the LPAG and a farmer from Hickory, PA were on the Chris Moore show on KDKA Radio to talk about a number of the issues regarding drilling operations in the area, as well as taking questions from concerned listeners.

What was really great was having Ron, the farmer from Hickory, tell his first hand experience with drilling on his property as well as the effects he witnessed from other operations in his area.

The interview lasted for two hours and a link to the two audio files can be found on Chris's page at KDKA:
