The Department of Environmental Protection will announce December 18 it is on track to complete more oil and gas drilling site inspections in 2017 than in 2016 as a result of an initiative that replaced paper forms with a mobile app.
Oil and gas Deputy Secretary Scott Perry will discuss this and several other productivity increases resulting from the early 2017 implementation of a mobile app for field inspectors, after years of a paper-based process.
Sharon Ward, Director of the Governor’s Office of Transformation, Innovation, Management and Efficiency (GO-TIME), will give an overview of the goals and successes to date of the GO-TIME initiative.
The announcement will be held in the Capitol Media Center in the Capitol Building Harrisburg starting at 11:00 a.m. Click Here to watch the event live online.
