Thanks to Judith Smet-Weiss for forwarding the letter you can find at the link below from the DEP declaring its intention to reject the permit application to consider fracking a beneficial use of landfill leachate! I’ll send more updates as the situation warrants, but looks like our side won this one! Thanks also to Walt Hug for bringing the story to our attention when he saw it in the BCTV article and, of course, thanks to Tracy Carluccio, Paul Rubin, and everyone at the Delaware Riverkeeper Network for the detailed comment they submitted to the DEP.

Yes, thanks to all who worked on this. as a former resident of Delaware County, it is nice to see that leachate from there won’t be used to poison aquifers anywhere else.
