June 2011
By:
Earl Hagström
Earl Hagström, Matthew Francois, Matthew G. Dudley and Jesica Gilbert authored the chapter “Hydraulic Fracturing in the Marcellus Shale: Strategies for Legal and Regulatory Compliance” for this book, which provides commentary and expert analysis on the legal developments surrounding natural gas extraction through the use of hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” in the Marcellus Shale region. The shale formation extends primarily under Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, and Ohio, but the issues being addressed in the Marcellus Shale have implications for other states where the drilling procedure is being used or expected to be used. This product also provides extensive news coverage from Westlaw Journal Environmental about new complaints alleging water contamination and ongoing litigation against oil companies.
