Under the Surface
Author: Tom Wilber
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 080145638X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
For the updated paperback edition of Under the Surface, Tom Wilber has written a new chapter and epilogue covering developments since the book's initial publication. Chief among these are the home rule movement and accompanying social and legal events leading up to an unprecedented ban of fracking in New York state, and the outcome of the federal EPA's investigation of water pollution just across the state border in Dimock, Pennsylvania. The industry, with powerful political allies, effectively challenged the federal government’s attempts to intervene in drilling communities in Pennsylvania, Wyoming, and Texas with water problems. But it met its match in a grassroots movement—known as "fractivism"—that sprouted from seeds sown in upstate New York community halls and grew into one of the state’s most influential environmental movements since Love Canal.Wilber weaves a narrative tracing the consequences of shale gas development in northeast Pennsylvania and central New York through the perspective of various stakeholders. Wilber's evenhanded treatment explains how the revolutionary process of fracking has changed both access to our domestic energy reserves and the lives of people living over them.He gives a voice to all constituencies, including farmers and landowners tempted by the prospects of wealth but wary of the consequences; policymakers struggling with divisive issues concerning free enterprise, ecology, and public health; and activists coordinating campaigns based on their respective visions of economic salvation and environmental ruin. Throughout the book, Wilber illustrates otherwise dense policy and legal issues in human terms and shows how ordinary people can affect extraordinary events.

Petroleum and Natural Gas in New York State, Vol. 16
Author: Charles A. Ashburner
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780483824263
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
Excerpt from Petroleum and Natural Gas in New York State, Vol. 16: A Paper Read Before the American Institute of Mining Engineers, Duluth Meeting, July, 1887; Revised to June, 1888 The occurrence of oil and gas-springs in the State of New York has been a fact of historical record since 1627, when the existence of the Cuba oil-spring was first recorded. The utilization of natural gas at Fredonia in 1821 attracted the attention of the public to the possibility of obtaining an illuminating gas by digging and drilling into the rocks. No active search was made, however, for oil or gas by the drilling of wells until after the discovery of commercial oil in Pennsylvania in 1859. In 1862 a well was drilled at Bradford, mckean County, Penn sylvania, but a few miles south of the New York state line, to the depth of 200 feet, in search of the oil-sand which had been found at Titusville, Oil City, and at other points in Western Pennsylvania. Immediately subsequent to this, other wells were drilled in search. Of petroleum at a number of points in New York, particularly in the western part of the State. Some explorations have been made, in an unsystematic way, for oil ever since, explorers being much encouraged in their search by the development of the Allegany oil-district in 1879 and 1880. Immediately subsequent to the gen eral utilization of natural gas in Pennsylvania in 1882 and 1883, a new interest was taken in the drilling of exploration wells, more particularly in search of gas. The principal object of this paper is to publish a record of the explorations which have been made up to date for oil and gas in the State. [have not mentioned every well which has been drilled, but only the more important ones with which I am familiar. The record of these wells have a two-fold value, first, to the practical geologist and well-driller, to enable him to deduce conclusions as to the possibility of getting natural gas in special localities, and to aid in further explorations; and second, to the technical geologist.
