Gas Well Spacing Legislation

House Bill 1211

I have introduced legislation, H.B. 1211, which would require at least a two-mile space between natural gas drill sites in the Marcellus Shale formation, minimizing the impact of natural gas drilling on Pennsylvania's landscape. Gas companies are drilling more wells than necessary. Spacing wells sites at least two miles apart would limit the impacts on the environment.
