During Monday night's Conservation District meeting, Elk County Watershed Specialist Kim Bonfardine announced a new monitoring project in the works to keep an eye on the Marcellus Shale drilling.
“My next project that I have on the list is called the Elk County Monitoring Project (ECMP),” Bonfardine said. “I'm trying to set up a monitoring project for whenever these wells are going to be drilled.”
According to Bonfardine, the drilling can be kept track of with data loggers that will be put in the streams.
