Statement of Dusty Horwitt, JD, Senior Analyst for Public Lands, Environmental Working Group for the Oversight Hearing on Natural Gas Drilling in the New York City Watershed before the New York City Council Committee on Environmental Protection. Wednesday, September 10, 2008 at 1:00 p.m.
"Environmental Working Group is not opposed to all natural gas drilling. But due to the highly polluting nature of the oil and gas industry, the likelihood that thousands of wells could be drilled, and the multi-billion-dollar cost of building a treatment facility to clean up contaminated water, we strongly recommend that New York officials not allow any drilling in New York City's watershed."
