Help Us Stop Illegal Water Pollution
As gas drilling ramps up across the state, many companies are already running roughshod over environmental laws like the Clean Water Act, and illegally polluting our environment. We need companies to follow our environmental laws -- but we need your help. 
Last spring Cabot Oil&Gas was required to pay a penalty for its connection to methane contamination occurring in a number of local residents' well waters in northeastern Pennsylvania.
Click here to e-mail Cabot Oil&Gas's CEO, Dan Dinges, and voice your disappointment with this pollution -- and call on him to follow our cornerstone environmental laws. [ http://www.pennenvironment.org/www/email-cabot?id4=ES ]
We need to send a clear message to these companies: Complying with our environmental laws isn't a luxury -- it's mandatory.
Cabot Oil & Gas is expected to drill more than 60 gas wells this year in northeastern Pennsylvania -- so it's more urgent than ever that they hear from the state's citizens that breaking our environmental laws and putting the health of local residents at risk is unacceptable.
So e-mail Cabot Oil & Gas CEO Dan Dinges today, [ http://www.pennenvironment.org/www/email-cabot?id4=ES ] and help us ensure that environmental laws are obeyed.
Over the next few weeks, we will continue to highlight gas companies that have been caught violating our environmental laws. We'll need your help to send the message that this isn't acceptable.
Send an e-mail to Cabot's CEO, Dan Dinges, today. Ask him to stop drilling in Pennsylvania until his company can ensure our drinking water supplies remain safe and clean.
