NYS Energy Plan
In March of 2008, New York's governor issued an executive order directing the creation of a state energy plan. A draft of that plan has now been published that recommends the "environmentally responsible development of [the Marcellus Shale] to large scale production, which would generate economic benefits, including increasing the stable supplies of indigenous fuel, lowering gas transportation costs for consumers, generating new State and local tax revenues, and increased revenues for landowners from land use agreements with natural gas companies."
