Shale Gas Impacts on Northeastern PA

July 5, 2013

~GEA867.kmz – Google Maps.

Map of Well pads, pipelines, chemical spills, compressor stations….et.al. in Northeastern PA

http://tinyurl.com/NEPAGasImpactsMap

You can zoom in and click on the symbols
and get an idea what the various symbols are for.

Here is a legend:

Yellow pushpins = permitted pads;
Yellow gas stations = fracked or producing wells;
Red pushpins = compressor stations
Brown pushpins = pipeline impact areas
(only areas requiring permits – road or stream xing, wetlands, etc.)
Brown circles = permitted hydrostatic testing discharge points;
Blue drops = alternate waste management pits for fracked water
Black pushpins = administrative violations, spill, contamination
Wavy water = water withdrawal point

I will try to add this legend to the map itself.
