S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 2914 2011-2012 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y January 21, 2011 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. LUPARDO, CROUCH, GIGLIO -- read once and referred to the Committee on Environmental Conservation AN ACT to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to establishing the New York state indigenous natural gas value added task force; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon the expiration thereof THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds and declares that within New York state lies the Marcellus shale which is a black shale formation extending deep underground from Ohio and West Virginia northeast into Pennsylvania and southern New York. According to the New York state department of environmental conservation some geolo- gists estimate that the entire Marcellus shale formation contains between 168 trillion to 516 trillion cubic feet of natural gas through- out its entire extent. It is not yet known how much gas will be commer- cially recoverable from the Marcellus shale in New York state. New York state currently uses 1.1 trillion cubic feet of natural gas a year. In order for New York state to derive the full value of this commodity located in the state, we need to utilize the gas in New York state for manufacturing and other value added activities. S 2. Article 19 of the environmental conservation law is amended by adding a new title 13 to read as follows: TITLE 13 NEW YORK STATE INDIGENOUS NATURAL GAS VALUE ADDED TASK FORCE SECTION 19-1301. NEW YORK STATE INDIGENOUS NATURAL GAS VALUE ADDED TASK FORCE. 19-1303. TASK FORCE COMPOSITION. 19-1305. POWERS AND DUTIES OF THE TASK FORCE. S 19-1301. NEW YORK STATE INDIGENOUS NATURAL GAS VALUE ADDED TASK FORCE. EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD07314-01-1
