The Attorney for Northeast Natural Energy says the company wants to stay on schedule with its two drilling projects near Morgantown in Monongalia County.
On Thursday, Attorney Jim Walls with Spillman, Thomas, Battle made several court filings on behalf of Northeast Energy in Monongalia County Circuit Court in an effort to clear the way for those projects despite the new ban on fracking in and near Morgantown city limits.
"We've got to take the action to make sure that we can complete the process that the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection said that we could which was to horizontally drill and frack these wells," Walls said.
