PPT : Drilling for Natural Gas in the Marcellus Shale 3

Content Inside :

Impacts of well drilling
* One three acre site per 40 acres or one five acre industrial site per square mile (640 acres)
* 5 million gallons of water per well
* 50,000 gallons of chemicals including carcinogens and endocrine disrupters per well
* Drilling 4-5 weeks per well 24 hours/day
* Up to 10 wells on one pad – must be drilled within three years
* 1200 or more truck trips to site per well
* Industrialization of the landscape with no local land use review

Environmental Impacts
* Consumptive use of massive amounts of water
* Introduction of large volumes of chemicals into the environment
* How to treat flowback water and produced brine with potential radioactive materials
* Significant air emissions including those responsible for smog
* Greenhouse gas emissions

Land Use Impacts
* Visual impacts including lighting of drilling rigs
* Land reclamation standards
* Noise including around the clock drilling
* Change in community character as a result of industrialization of the landscape
* Impacts on roads from heavy truck use

Socio-Economic Impacts
* Most benefits accrue to a relatively few larger landowners
* Costs are borne by everyone; already impacting local governments in Tompkins County and elsewhere
* Could undermine economic development efforts related to agriculture, tourism, technology and higher education, i.e., sustainable economy
* Potential to dramatically alter quality of life

Tompkins County Planning Department’s Review of the dSGEIS Mitigation Section
* In some cases Mitigation Measures are identified that would appear to be useful in addressing the potential environmental impacts if we could be assured they would be properly implemented
* Too often Mitigation Measures are “suggested” in the dSGEIS when they should be “required”
* Too often Mitigation Measures are inadequate or not addressed at all
