House Republican Policy Committee Sets April 21 Hearing On Marcellus Water Quality Issues
|
|
The House Republican Policy Committee will hold a hearing on April 21 on Marcellus Shale water quality issues from 9:00 a.m. at the Murrysville Community Center.
“We, the public and elected officials, have real and well-placed concerns regarding water quality,” said Rep. Eli Evankovich (R-Armstrong). “As I’ve stated before, I support fixing this jobs-growing industry, not destroying it. The intention of this hearing is to better understand existing practices and develop any policy changes necessary to ensure that we protect our environment. I think that it’s appropriate to have this hearing in the town where commercial natural gas began.”
“We want to make sure we have policies in place that balance our economic needs with our environmental responsibilities,” said Rep. Dave Reed (R-Indiana), Chair of the House Republican Policy Committee.
This hearing will be open to the public. The Murrysville Community Center is located at 3091 Carson Avenue, in Murrysville.
