RE: NYS also has shale drilling basically shut down for the foreseeable future.

Yep, and in the meantime, states like Pennsylvania and North Dakota are exploiting their own natural gas resources and creating thousands of jobs in the process.
Somehow, only in NY does drilling for natural gas become an issue about contaminating drinking water.
The pity is == it is estimated that NYS actually has MORE natural gas than most other states.
And what a way to get business into this state. A ready supply of reasonably priced natural gas to be piped where it’s needed. Kill job killing regulations on business and you have a job growth environment. Plus the jobs created in the actual production of the gas.
