Was there fracking planned in NY state? The same formation that PA is fracking goes into the bottom half of Upstate NY from the PA border up till the NYS Thruway.

We vacationed in upstate NY in the 60s and 70s.

Shale all over the place.

Southern Tier Region has the thickest chunk of the Marcellus shale, a gold mine under our feet. But the real story of commerce here is the booming heroin trade.

The area is ripe for it, but I believe the problem is that it is in the watersheds that provide the drinking water to much of the state. This has been an issue for years, as NYers watched neighboring Pennsylvanians get rich leasing their land to fracking outfits.
