Murrysville sets fracking well hearing for next month
A public hearing on a proposed Titan well pad off Bollinger Road in Murrysville is scheduled for June 19.
Murrysville council will host the 7 p.m. hearing on the unconventional gas well in council chambers at the municipal building, 4100 Sardis Road.
The Titan pad, proposed by Canonsburg driller Huntley & Huntley, would be located on a 71-acre parcel although work would take place only on nine acres of the property, according to a land development application filed in October.
The Titan proposal is the first fracking-related project to enter the municipality’s development pipeline since its oil and gas ordinance was updated and approved in May 2017.
