| New York State may lift the ban on hydrofracking to allow drilling for natural gas except in state parks, wildlife preserves, and watersheds that supply drinking water. Cities and towns may still be able to ban hydrofracking in their communities. Would you want the city or town where you live to allow or not allow drilling for natural gas on private property? |
