The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) will hold a
public meeting on natural gas development in the Loyalsock State Forest in Lycoming County.
Secretary Richard Allan's announcement says that "DCNR is responding to requests that the public be given the chance to provide the department with information and comments on possible gas development in the Loyalsock, in an area where
we do not own the subsurface rights."
Now is your chance to show your opposition to gas development in this special place.
Speak up, or come to show your opposition and support those who will.
Bring family. Bring friends. Bring signs. Make a difference.
The meeting will begin with a presentation explaining the wonderful job DCNR will do to mitigate the destruction of this wild and remote gem of the state forest system. Next, those attending will have an opportunity to question Secretary Allan and State Forester Dan Devlin. Citizens will then be able to speak their minds; comments are
limited to five minutes per speaker.
DCNR's announcement of the meeting included a sense of finality with this language:
"This meeting is the completion of a series of interactions with the public regarding this complicated and long-standing issue, including a local stakeholder meeting
and a public web-based information session."
Let DCNR know that this is not the end:
Come and join the fight to preserve what is rightfully ours.
