Hydraulic Fracturing in New York State Web Archive

Collected by: Cornell University Library

Archived since: Aug, 2011

Description:

For a number of years, the citizens of New York State have engaged in a rich debate concerning the prospect of hydraulic fracturing in the Marcellus Shale. While some of the discussion and events have been captured by news outlets, much of the information is appearing on web sites and social media. Unfortunately, web sites disappear over time and important content can vanish. To ensure that this important trove of information is available to future generations of scholars, the Cornell University Library is creating a permanent archive of the web sites concerned with the issue of hydraulic fracturing in New York.

Title: Town of Union Citizens Against Fracking

URL: http://unionfrackingban.yolasite.com/

Description: "We, the Town of Union Citizens Against Fracking (TOUCAF), are a self-funded group of concerned volunteer residents in the Town of Union, the Village of Endicott, the Village of Johnson City, and Endwell. TOUCAF is concerned that this industrial practice can contaminate our water and air, damage our roads, reduce property values, and subsequently depress the town tax base, and irreparably impede on our quality of life and pursuit of happiness in the Town of Union and beyond. We work to provide information about this potentially destructive practice in order to have a ban passed in the Town of Union." -- from website, 11/5/2014
