NY’s Fracking Comment Period Begins Today (You can weigh in on New York’s proposed regulations)... [View all]

Source: Politics on the Hudson


A 30-day public-comment period officially began today. It will close Jan. 11 at 5 p.m.

The state Department of Environmental Conservation late last month issued a new set of proposals for regulating shale-gas drilling, a legal maneuver that bought the agency another 90 days to finalize their rules. The state now faces a late February deadline for completing the regulations.

The DEC is accepting comments online and through mail. You can submit online comments here, while paper submissions can be sent to:

Attn: Draft HVHF Regulations Comments
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
625 Broadway
Albany, NY 12233-6510
