  • 2011-2012 PA Marcellus Shale Scorecard - Page 1 SCORING the MARCELLUS SHALE
    2011-2012 PA Marcellus Shale Scorecard - Page 1 SCORING THE MARCELLUS SHALE Clean Water Action, Conservation Voters of Pennsylvania, PennEnvironment, and Sierra Club present the 2011-2012 Pennsylvania Marcellus Shale Scorecard, a permanent record that scores every Pennsylvania state legislator on votes cast during the debate and passage of House Bill 1950, now known as Act 13 of 2012. HB 1950 is the most significant Marcellus Shale gas drilling legislation to date and the most important environmental legislation of the last decade. This legislation is a significant step in the wrong direction that leaves our communities, our health, and our environment at continued risk. • HB 1950 tramples on municipal rights by requiring communities to allow all gas drilling activities near schools, day care centers, hospitals, and homes. This also overturns existing local zoning ordinances that protect residents from gas development • The environmental provisions in the bill are inadequate to protect our familes and our drinking water, including set backs that allow gas drilling to occur as close as 500 feet from our schools and homes. • HB 1950 also enacts one of the country’s lowest extraction fees, allowing billion-dollar companies to avoid paying their fair share, while our state’s environmental protection agencies face devastating budget cuts. Traditionally, our scorecards rate and record votes spanning a variety of environmental issues. Because of the magnitude of the impact that HB 1950 will have on all Pennsylvanians, we believe it critical that the public be fully informed of the actions of their state legislators on this bill. To that end, we present this un- precedented Marcellus Scorecard, the first collaborative scorecard produced by these four organizations.
