(1,249 posts)26. DCNR To Hold Closed-Door Meeting on Drilling in Loyalsock State Forest
The state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) is holding an invitation-only meeting next week about one of the most controversial issues its dealing with involving natural gas drilling on state lands.
The agency has come under scrutiny over whether or not it plans to allow Anadarko Petroleum to access mineral rights the company owns underneath the Loyalsock State Forest.

The meeting is April 4, 2013. I'm a little worried. I haven't gotten my invitation yet.
