Tell the DRBC: Ban fracking waste!

The Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) is responsible for protecting the Delaware River Basin, a source of drinking water for millions of people in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware.

Last year, the DRBC established a permanent ban on fracking in the region, but failed to halt the disposal of fracking waste in the watershed or the withdrawal of water from the Basin for use in fracking.

The DRBC, made up of the Biden administration and governors of the region's four states, is meeting on December 7, and proposed regulations regarding fracking activities is on the agenda. We must send an urgent message: We need a ban on any fracking waste or wasterwater in the region, as well as on withdrawing water for fracking done elsewhere.

Tell your governor and the Biden administration: We need a COMPLETE fracking ban, not an unacceptable half-measure.

*Your governor requires you to fill out the information below in order to receive your comment.
