NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Council of the City of Pittsburgh supports the proposed measures by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to reduce methane from oil and gas operations; and, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Council of the City of Pittsburgh encourages strengthening of the proposed measures beyond what is currently being proposed by requiring leak detection and repair surveys to be done monthly instead of quarterly; removing a provision that allows operators to decrease the inspection frequency; and passing a state regulation to control methane emissions from Pennsylvania’s 100,000 existing oil and gas facilities and not just new facilities.
