The Ohio Department of Natural Resources has issued a new horizontal drilling
permit to CNX Gas Co. LLC, a subsidiary of Consol Energy Corp., for a new gas
well in Mahoning County.
According to ODNR records, ODNR issued the permit Sept. 17 for CNX to drill
on the Cadle property in Jackson Township.
This is the second well CNX has permitted for the Cadle property. Another
well on the site is now being drilled, state records show.
CNX has also drilled a third well at the Hendricks Farm in Ellsworth Township
in Mahoning County.
Fourteen horizontal wells have been permitted in Mahoning County since last
year. All except the three CNX wells are permitted for Chesapeake Exploration
LLC, the most active energy company exploring for oil and gas in the Utica shale
region of eastern Ohio.
No permits were issued to Chesapeake last week.
ODNR also awarded permits to Gulfport Energy for two horizontal wells in
Harrison County, and three permits to Mountaineer Keystone LLC for drilling
rights on land in Portage County. Another energy company, Hall Drilling LLC, was
issued a permit to drill in Monroe County.
Dear Neighbors:
ReplyDeleteI am passing this information on to you because you have expressed concern in the past for the safety of our community. This might be a way for some of us to get our water tested for a baseline or if we have issues already with seismic testing, etc.
If you do sign up and are called to participate, please make sure this is a Tier 3 level of testing to make certain you have a very clear picture of the quality of your water.

DeleteWe are working with a university conducting a study of ground water results around areas of Ohio who have experienced any oil & gas activity as well as baseline data for those soon to come. To be considered, please enter your information in the form below. We will then contact you with more information and will be able to answer any questions as the time for the testing draws near (most likely around Nov 2012).
