NY State Assembly Passes Moratorium Bill

The bill which passed in the NY State Assembly this week is a moratorium bill on permits for natural gas drilling which would require hydraulic fracturing.  It does not stop ALL drilling for natural gas in NY State, only drilling of new wells.  And it expires in six months.  It awaits Governor Paterson's signature.  Read the bill here:
