Defend the Delaware River from Fracking!
Join us on September 2 at the DRBC meeting to support the frack ban!
We all fought back last month when fracking interests tried to pass federal legislation to overturn the ban on fracking in the Delaware River Watershed. We prevailed and the ban is still in place but efforts to undo that protection are still underway.
Please join us to stand for the frack ban at the DRBC’s annual in-person meeting on September 2! RSVP here!

The Delaware River Basin has been protected from the ravages of fracking experienced by communities across Pennsylvania and our nation since 2010, protecting the drinking water for communities in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware and defending our environment from fracking’s devastating damages. But the fracking industry and their proponents are not going to give up their craving to extract fossil gas from beneath our feet and they have vowed to wrestle control away from the Delaware River Basin Commission to do just that. We will never let that happen!
Let’s show them we are pledged to defend the frack ban no matter how they attack us! Please join us at the DRBC’s meeting to show community support at the press conference!
