Muncy local, John Schaeffer, was recently featured in an article in Penn Capital-Star about data centers moving into Pennsylvania towns: "For Schaeffer, a retired investment banker whose connection to the farm goes back to his childhood, it is both a respite and a responsibility. He and his 90-year-old uncle Malcolm Barlow share the rambling 1769 farmhouse — the oldest in Lycoming County — and the family has chosen, over the years, to keep it a working farm."

For communities yet to face data center proposals, the experiences of Montour County, Middlesex Township and Muncy Township could be a guide.

The fracking boom has transformed the United States into the world’s largest producer of natural gas. But fracking also produces huge volumes of salty wastewater laden with heavy metals, radioactive materials and cancer-causing benzene, as well as hazardous chemical additives from the fracking process..."

SIX YEARS - NO ACTION
In June of 2020, then Attorney General Josh Shapiro announced the findings of PA's Statewide Investigating Grand Jury on the unconventional shale gas industry in the state.

There are currently 24,694 permitted fracked gas wells in Pennsylvania. 1,902 of those are in Lycoming County.
