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.
