HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) – Pennsylvania will begin enforcing tougher air pollution standards on its booming natural gas industry.
Gov. Tom Wolf’s administration said Thursday that in August it will begin requiring the Marcellus Shale exploration industry to use better equipment to reduce methane emissions and other pollutants. It’ll apply to new or updated well sites and compression, processing and transmission stations along pipelines.
