Rally For Clean Water - Federal Fracking Case
February 22, 2016
Dimock PA families with water contamination from hydraulic fracturing will finally have their day in court against Cabot Oil & Gas. The federal jury trial will begin on February 22, 2016 in the Scranton Federal Courthouse and will be the highest-profile court case related to shale gas development in history.
We will hold a large rally and press conference at high noon at the courthouse square in Scranton, PA. If you would like to attend the hearing, please plan to arrive no later than 9 am.
Housing with guest beds and floor sleeping is available upon request.
If the Dimock case is successful, we will finally have some closure and fair compensation. At the very least, the trial phase will expose information about Cabot's operations that have deprived Dimock families of their basic rights, such as clean drinking water.
Time: 12 to 4 pm
Venue: Courthouse Square
Location: Scranton, PA
