Fracking forum scheduled at Binghamton University
CHENANGO COUNTY – Whether you’re for or against the process of hydrofracking (fracking) as a means to source natural gas from deep within the shale deposits of the earth, an interest into the subject remains for many Chenango County residents.
One of several informational forums – closest to Chenango County – is scheduled for 7 p.m. January 31 in Vestal at the Binghamton University bioengineering building.
Presenters will highlight the likelihood of there being any benefit to fracking in upstate New York based on the results of studying the viability and results of the more than 700 natural gas wells implemented in portions of Pennsylvania.
The presentation is sponsors by a number of groups and organizations located through Broome and Tioga counties; including NYRAD (New York Residents Against Drilling) which has been active in advocating against the practice of fracking in and around Chenango County since the boom of the natural gas prospect among the alleged Marcellus shale tracts deep below the surface of the earth.
Former Mobil Oil Executive Vice President Lou Allstadt, accompanied by Jerry Action, former Lockheed Martin Systems Engineer and Brian Brock, a retired geologist have prepared a non-partisan lecture of their findings and how it relates to the future – or lack thereof – of gas drilling in New York.
“Acton's research into the productivity over time of existing wells in Pennsylvania took him a year and the results may have played a role in Norse Energy's inability to sell their leases even in bankruptcy,” said Oxford resident Irving Hall.
Hall said, “These experts are addressing the topics of economics and geology to assess the likelihood that gas drilling in New York State could be profitable enough to draw companies here. The emphasis of their study are scientific and economic facts. This will allow the public to form their own conclusions based on evidence.”
Many residents and proponents of drilling who believe that fracking the Marcellus shale will help bolster the local and state economies suggest that the work and studies of geologists and sedimentologists of the USGS in the past proove the viability of natural gas production in portions of upstate New York.
The forum is expected to attract residents who have formed conclusions as well as those seeking to further their education on the hot-button issue that has been amidst the media since 2006 when large energy corporations initiated the prospect of tapping into and marketing natural gas deposits in upstate New York.
