Letter from FERC to Texas Eastern, Re: Comments on Draft Resource Report 9 and 10, January 18, 2013 [excerpt]:
Resource Report 9 - Air Quality and Noise
1.Provide a description of the potential cumulative effects on air and
noise resulting from the construction and operation of the TEAM 2014
Project in Pennsylvania.

-------------------------
Notes:
The SPRINGHILL CS TO BEZJAK PIPELINE is the nexus of most of Fayette
County's most notorious Marcellus Shale infrastructure locations.
Starting at the compressor station next to the Carr family, extending to
the property of Joe Bezjak, and crossing the property of the Headleys
along the way, this one facility is a good candidate for being a capsule
summary of the devastation being wreaked upon Marcellus Shale families.
The Authorization record for authorization ID 957475 lists the "client"
as PHILLIPS EXPLORATION INC, but the site record (site ID 731273) lists
as the only "client" XTO ENERGY INC. (XTO is a subsidiary of Exxon.)
Conoco Phillips has been active in filing documents in FERC docket
PF12-19, Texas Eastern's TEAM 2014 project, which involves upgrades to
Texas Eastern Uniontown Compressor Station. The HELEN K BUKOVAC 4H OG
WELL is an existing well, having been originally permitted in 2010.
Since the POLK TO FIKE PIPELINE extends into two townships, the
latitude/longitude published above are likely to be for just one stream
crossing.
My reading of the letter from FERC to Texas Eastern regarding the TEAM
2014 project is that FERC is asking Texas Eastern to perform an
aggregation analysis across the whole project in Pennsylvania. This is
pretty interesting. DEP is doing everything it can to *EXCLUDE* from
aggregation analysis everything it can get away with.
-------------------------
eNOTICE records are likely to list the same permit multiple times, as that permit moves through the DEP process.
Oil & Gas Wells designated with a site a number and the letter H typically designate horizontal wells.

Marcellus Shale waste disposal injection wells in Pennsylvania are
regulated directly by EPA, not DEP. Notice of any new permit
applications will appear at the above web address. I'm not aware
of any subscription service to be notified of such applications. I'm not
aware of any Marcellus Shale waste disposal injection wells in Fayette
County (yet ...) but we need to monitor this page for future
applications.

Disclaimers:
This compilation from the above sources was done by hand using copy and paste and may omit relevant permits.
Does not currently include water supply permits.
Erosion & Sedimentation permit records do not currently include
latitude and longitude. Where I am publishing latitude and longitude
with E&S permits it is by inferring an associated well permit and
using published latitude and longitude for the well. It is possible I
may be inferring the wrong well site.
Municipalities are shown from eFACTS records on the DEP web site. The DEP has been known to list a municipality incorrectly.
