Fracking in Pennsylvania beta
The use of hydraulic fracturing has opened up oil and gas resources in many parts of the country where drilling was not previously occurring. These wells are drilled near our homes, schools, and offices—but information about them is not always readily accessible or publicly available.
We need to have better information about the effects of drilling on our health, land and quality of life
This page summarizes the information shown in the Pennsylvania fracking map according to county and well operator.
Note: All well locations and data were obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) website. NRDC cannot guarantee the accuracy of this data.
We deserve to know what pollution is being dumped into our waterways
