The Fracking Clock is Ticking

Thank you for your ongoing support in the fight against the rush to fracking in New York State.  We are at a crossroads and the next few months are critical to how fracking will move forward here. Last week, the DEC released its revised fracking environmental impact statement and the clock began ticking on the public comment period.  That means we have less than 90 days to review and comment on draft regulations that the DEC will not even release until sometime in October.  In addition, DEC has still not committed to wait to begin permitting until regulations have been finalized.

Please take action today and tell Governor Cuomo and Joe Martens to stop the rush to fracking in New York.
