There is some EXCITING NEWS about this case coming out this week...
Sorry to be a tease... stay tuned!!!
Ray Kemble of Dimock PA signed a lease with Cabot Oil and Gas in 2006.
At the time, Cabot's "Land Man" said there would be no problems, just a little
"Christmas Tree" over the wellhead. Ray was completely unprepared
for the industrial onslaught which ensued.
for the industrial onslaught which ensued.
Ray's private water well was first contaminated by gas drilling in 2009.
In the final of a series of Consent Orders and Settlement Agreements (COSAs)
dated Dec 15, 2010, between Cabot and PA DEP, Cabot was banned from Drilling and
Fracking inside the "Dimock Impacted Area" (9 square miles) until
the problems were fixed.
The ban is still in place today.
However, PA DEP did allow Cabot to frack 7 "stranded" wells inside the "Dimock Impacted Area" after Cabot argued they had met the terms of the COSA. (For some reason, Cabot only seems to have fracked 6 of the 7).
Mr. Kemble and several other families experienced NEW water quality changes, even worse
than before:

Ray has become so well known for his advocacy for clean water,
that some top artists have honored Ray:
Here is acclaimed graphic artist Charlotta Janssen's portrait of

Ray's goal is to challenge the legality (and stupidity) of allowing gag orders
when public health and safety is at risk.
