More than two dozen commenters participated in the fourth meeting of Gov. Tom Wolf’s Pipeline Infrastructure Task Force Wednesday held at DEP's Southcentral Regional Office in Harrisburg. 

The meeting, chaired by DEP Secretary John Quigley, was the most well attended meeting of the task force to date.

In addition to hearing comments from the public, members heard presentations from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fish and Boat Commission, and the Game Commission.

Recommendations by members of the 11 workgroups are due November 2.  A draft report will be available for public comment on November 6.  The group’s final report is due to Gov. Wolf by February 2016.

Video of the meeting will be available on the Task Force meeting webpage.

The next meeting of the Task Force is November 18.  For more information, visit DEP’s Pipeline Infrastructure Task Force webpage.
