NOON has been involved with the effort to educate about and stop Hydrofracking in NYS since the Onondaga leaders brought it to our attention several years ago. Jack Ramsden is our lead on this project. Email<\/a> | 424-1454<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important issues worked on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. A 24″ gas pipeline, proposed to run from the Millennium Pipeline in Broome Co. to southern Onondaga County, has being challenged by a coalition including ShaleshockCNY.     (shaleshockcny.org\/pipeline.html)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. NYS’s moratorium preventing Hydrofracking ran out and Governor Cuomo can decide at any time whether to allow it or not.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Towns are passing bans to prevent Hydrofracking. Dryden’s and Middlefield’s bans have been upheld in court.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    NOON has been working with allies across New York to advocate a total ban on hydrofracking in the state. In January, 2013, thousands of protesters called for a ban at Governor Cuomo’s State of the State address in Albany. Then, anti-frackers delivered more than 204,000 comments against the proposed fracking regulations. The movement to ban hydrofracking is growing daily!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What is Hydrofracking?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Slickwater Horizontal Hydrofracking is a new process for natural gas extraction that could shortly be a regular process seen in upstate New York because of the extensive Marcellus and Utica Shale deposits found throughout Central New York and the Southern Tier. NOON and the Onondaga Nation oppose hydrofracking because of the intensive resource use and the environmental and health impacts that are often incurred from the drilling process, inevitable accidents, and their aftermath. Hydrofracking will harm our communities, our land, our water, and our air; the impacts will be felt for generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      ShaleshockCNY <\/strong>aims to bring together the variety of people and groups working locally on the issue of hydrofracking so that we can share information and to prevent fracking from coming to our towns. shaleshockcny.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      FracTracker Alliance<\/strong> is dedicated to enhancing the public’s understanding of the impacts of the global oil and gas industry by collecting, interpreting, and sharing data and visualizations through their website. For NYS\u00c2  https:\/\/www.fractracker.org\/ <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Gas Drilling Awareness for Cortland County<\/strong> informs about drilling in their area and education on Hydrofracking. Currently focused on the pipeline. http:\/\/gdacc.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      New Yorkers Against Fracking<\/a><\/strong> is a coalition of New York State consumer advocacy, health, religious, food, and environmental organizations and dozens of grassroots groups calling for a ban. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Frack Action<\/strong> is engaged in a legislative advocacy, grassroots organizing, and public awareness campaign aimed at exposing the truth on fracking and building the critical mass necessary to stop it.
