Diligence and Caution Needed in Approach to Gas Drilling We have an obligation to make sure we don’t create another hazardous legacy like the toxic plume in Endicott. Before we rush in too quickly, we need to proceed with diligence and caution on all aspects of the environmental impacts of the drilling to ensure long-term social, economic and environmental health for our region. We applaud the Governor’s recent decisions in directing the Department of Environmental Conservation( DEC) to prepare a new Generic Environmental Impact Statement and it’s implied moratorium, addressing the state’s glaring deficiencies and preparedness for the massive scope of the anticipated drilling.
