FRACKED: OUR PA HENHOUSE & THE FRACKING FOXES

A perfect metaphor on every level - local to global

Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission

Members Rack Up Violations

Eight of the drilling companies with representatives on the commission were cited with environmental violations last year.

"One of them led the state in violations. All of them

contributed to Gov. Tom Corbett's campaign."

"That lends ammunition to environmentalists’ complaint that

Corbett populated the commission henhouse

with industry foxes favored for their largesse

rather than careful business practices."

"Industry officials say the representatives

bring valuable expertise and talent to the panel."

Yeah...of course they do

Chief Oil & Gas - 174 violations

East Resources - 74 violations

Exxon Mobil - 66 violations

Range Resources - 32 violations

Chevron - 16 violations

EQT - 15 violations

Consol - 5 violations

Let's not forget Chesapeake...

"Chesapeake Energy had the third-highest number of violations at 132; Chesapeake’s vice president of government relations, Dave Spigelmyer, was appointed to the commission, but chose to step off prior to the beginning of its work."

"Most famously, Corbett received a $480,000 contribution from Chesapeake Energy’s Audrey McClendon – funneled through a national Republican political committee – just before the 2004 Attorney General election. Corbett has appointed a Chesapeake Energy executive to serve on the Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission."
