Gas Drilling
Each year the Green Panel, consisting of more than a dozen environmental groups, identify bills of special significance known as “super bills”. This year the Environmental Conservation Committee listed the “Fracking Moratorium and Health Impacts Assessment” as a super bill.
The bill would enact a moratorium on certain types of natural gas drilling until May 15, 2015, and require the completion of a comprehensive health impact assessment. This legislation (A.5424-A Sweeney) passed the Assembly, but the Senate has not yet taken action.

ISSUES ACCESSING THE OVERFLOW REPORT FORM
There have been reports of issues accessing the updated Overflow Report Form. The issue appears to involve ADOBE 11, web browsers other than Internet Explorer, and mobile phone access to the form. The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation is working on the problems, but in the meantime, here are some ideas to avoid those problems should you need to report an overflow before they are corrected.
1. Don’t download ADOBE 11. Continue using ADOBE 10 until the problem is fixed.
