GAS: New York's highest court has upheld the bans on natural gas drilling
Albany -- New York's highest court has upheld the bans on natural gas
drilling passed by two small
Upstate towns. It is a major decision for the future of hydrofracking in New York state,
where the drilling process has been on hold for more than five years. The
decision allows towns to forbid fracking and other forms of gas drilling within
their borders. The state Department of Environmental Conservation is still
deciding whether to allow hydrofracking in New York. See the full article and decision at: http://www.syracuse.com/
