Marcellus Caucus in Congress -- Not a Bakken Story

Link here. In case the link is broken in the future here are the first two paragraphs of that story:

Newly elected Rep. Tom Reed, R-Corning, said Wednesday that he plans to pull together like-minded members of Congress to push for fuller development of the natural gas reserves in the Marcellus Shale.

Only a day after the State Legislature approved a six-month ban on the controversial process of hydraulic fracturing to release the shale's gas, Reed -- in his first media conference call as a congressman--told reporters that the shale has great economic potential.

For newbies, the Marcellus Shale in New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and neighboring states is a natural gas formation, not oil, like the Bakken.
