Fractracker maps of NY bans and moratoria
December 24, 2013
There have been numerous updates to our hydrofracking bans and moratoria map in the past weeks, including bans in Meredith (Delaware County), Hartwick (Otsego County), Butternuts (Otsego County), Lafayette (Onondaga County) and Moravia (Cayuga County). Here’s the map http://www.fractracker.org/map/ny-moratoria/.

The persistence and endurance of this movement to safeguard environmental and human health in New York State is showing and growing. As always, please let me know if we’ve overlooked any towns that have passed prohibitions, or are actively working on them.
