1:00PM – 4:00PM
Higgins Hall Auditorium, Tyler Caruso
NYC including Bloomberg and the Department of Environmental Protection have taken a stand against natural gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale region part of which is located in NYC’s Watershed, urging Albany to do the same. Many advocates, maintain that if it dangerous for some part of the state, it should be banned throughout.

A panel of professionals, activists, concerned citizens and community groups, including members from Shaleshock, Catskill Citizens for Safe Energy , Friends of Brook Parkand the Office of Environmental Coordination will discuss the facts and risks inherent to natural gas drilling and explain how it would effect NYC city citizens- in terms of health, safety, water quality and resulting future economic obligations.
