       [center]&#129429; Fracking Firm Agrees to Pay a Small Town’s
       Water Bills for 75 Years [img
       width=60]

       SNIPPET:
       After years of legal wrangling, the company formerly known as
       Cabot Oil & Gas agreed to plead no contest to 15 criminal
       violations of state environmental laws and pay nearly $16.3
       million for the construction of a new public water supply for
       Dimock. Activists say some Dimock residents went years without
       access to clean tap water, and Coterra Energy, the company that
       bought Cabot, will pay their water bills for 75 years under a
       plea deal with Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro. It
       remains unclear whether Coterra would be permitted to frack the
       area in the future, but production was halted years ago as the
       scandal unfolded.
       Located in rural northwestern Pennsylvania, Dimock became ground
       zero for the debate over fracking on January 1, 2009, when a
       resident’s water well exploded after filling with methane.
       Residents had already suffered from strange rashes and headaches
       for several months, and at least one family was evacuated from
       their home, according to the environmental group Food and Water
       Watch. Residents would later learn that a fracking rig run by a
       Cabot subsidiary had ruptured a “methane pocket” but kept
       drilling despite a leak.
       “Finally, some justice,” said Ray Kemble, a Dimock resident
       whose water was contaminated, in a statement. “This case proves
       once and for all that drilling and fracking contaminated our
       drinking water.”
       Back in 2009, fracking was a relatively new technology allowing
       producers to drill or “frack” horizontally in vast underground
       shale formations that were rich in oil and gas but largely
       inaccessible to conventional drilling. The [img

       “People across the country remember what
       &#129429;&#128167;&#9760;&#65039; happened here in Dimock, and
       now, they will know the rule of law won the day,” Shapiro said.
