The Capitol Pressroom for May 25, 2012 | WCNY Blogs.
You know the David and Goliath story – In the version you will hear on today’s show, David is a 54 year old Canadian scientist by the name of Jessica Ernst . An unlikely hero in that she worked with and for the petroleum industry for 30 years. In this story, her Goliath is one of the largest natural gas producers in the world, EnCana. With Ernst’s diligence, the Canadian Energy Resources Conservation Board has started to pursue EnCana for negligence and unlawful activities. While the issue is still in court, and none of Ernst’s claims have been proven, she was asked to testify at the UN on the same issue.

Lansing resident Roger Hopkins just put together this nice animation of the ban and moratorium maps I’ve been updating for the past year. You can really see how the home rule movement (absent of a real statewide ban) has kicked in.
Seneca Lake Methane Storage Project 31097521420002
May 23, 2012
Inergy has applied for permits for stratigraphic test wells. What they’re doing is opening and preparing depleted salt caverns for Natural Gas Liquid storage (aka fracked gas and fracked gas derivatives like Liquefied Petroleum). Their plan is to be ready to store the glut of gas being produced from fracking as soon as the DEC accepts the EIS as final. This decision could come down any day now and we could become the fracked gas storage and transport capital of the USA.
