This Thursday at 6PM in Burgettstown: the ETC Revolution Cryogenic Plant in Bulger, PA is requesting an updated air pollution permit from the PA Department of Environmental Protection.

The plant has a history of issues, including an explosion in 2022 and significant flaring episodes as recently as last month. Bulger is a designated Environmental Justice Area and is home to the Smith Compressor Station, Harmon Creek Gas Plant and Revolution Pipeline; that means residents are already at greater risk of health and environmental harms from industrial activity than the surrounding communities.

It is crucial that residents living near this facility who have experienced issues with air quality, truck traffic, or noise and light pollution register to comment at this hearing. Call 412-442-4042 or email [email protected] to register and contact us with additional questions or assistance!

On June 29th, Union Township is holding a mega-hearing to discuss changes to its ordinances for data centers, fossil fuel power plants, injection wells, and noise and dust control! The Supervisors plan to hold their monthly meeting immediately afterwards to possibly vote on and approve the ordinances.

All of these policies will directly impact how Union Township protects residents as our region faces the rapid buildout of fracked gas-powered data centers. Residents are encouraged to attend and provide public comment about what protections you and your neighbors deserve!

The Pennsylvania House has passed several bipartisan bills to create rules on data centers so that they don't jack up our electric bills, get built where they don't belong, or cause blackouts. But the Senate Majority Leader Joe Pittman doesn't even want them to be discussed.

Pennsylvanians deserve action. It's up to the State Senate to listen!
