Marcellus Shale Coalition Comments On Proposed DEP Methane Reduction Rule From Oil & Gas Operations

The Marcellus Shale Coalition president David Spigelmyer released this statement in response to the December 17 action by the Environmental Quality Board to approve regulations to control methane emissions from existing oil and gas operations for public comment--
“Our industry is focused on ensuring methane, the product we produce and sell, as well as related emissions are effectively and safely managed. 
“To continue to build upon our air quality-related successes, we’re enhancing best practices, utilizing new technologies and collaborating as an industry around these shared environmental and business goals, all while pushing record production levels. 
“We do, however, have concerns about potential costs as well as DEP’s timing given ongoing federal regulatory activity associated with existing source emissions. Rather than creating more regulatory uncertainty, DEP should delay any regulatory proposals until federal rules are finalized.”
