Many rural areas are seeing a boom in drilling for oil and natural gas, which are more complex and perhaps more risky enterprises than ever before. To make sure journalists know enough to
cover the subject, a half-day seminar will be held Sept. 27 at
Youngstown State University in Ohio to "explain everything there is to know
about the subject," say the sponsors: the Ohio Newspaper Association and the local newspaper, The Vindicator.
The program will include how horizontal hydraulic fracturing works, the economic impact of drilling, the environmental debate over drilling, and much more. After the program there will be an optional tour of drilling facilities. We recommend you do the whole day, including the field trip. You won't learn everything there is to know, but you don't have to. The cost to attend is a very reasonable $30, which includes lunch. For more information and registration, click here.
