The PA Association of Environmental Educators is hosting another in its professional development webinars October 18 on Setback Distances From Schools And Residential Neighborhoods - How Close Is Too Close? From 6:00 to 7:00 p.m.
Pennsylvania state law currently allows unconventional well pads to be built as close as 500 feet from schools and residential neighborhoods. Is that too close?
Join Protective Buffers PA to learn about Setback Distances and the health impacts that oil and gas infrastructure has on Pennsylvania communities.
