WFN13

CNX is beginning construction of WFN13, a Marcellus well pad in West Finely Township, Washington County, PA. As a result of the collaboration between the Shapiro administration and CNX, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection is conducting comprehensive air quality monitoring of this unconventional gas well site before, during, and after development. Additionally, as part of the Radical Transparency program, CNX is providing pre- and post- drill water protection monitoring data and will provide chemical additive disclosures.

Air Quality MonitoringWater Protection Monitoring
At this time, air quality monitoring activities for WFN13 are being led by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) pursuant to the Statement of Mutual Interests executed between Governor Shapiro’s Administration and CNX, which provides PADEP with the lead role in conducting independent air monitoring before, during, and after well development to support a comprehensive evaluation of emissions and environmental impacts.

Because the monitoring program at WFN13 is being conducted under PADEP’s independent study, the resulting data will be managed through PADEP’s monitoring effort and will not be displayed on CNX’s Air Quality Monitoring tab.

A series of pre- and post-drill water samples are collected at private water sources within 2,500 feet of each discrete surface hole location. The samples are collected by third-party environmental consultants and are sent to state-certified laboratories for analysis against a list of parameters that surpasses regulatory requirements. The results are shared with the landowners and state regulatory agencies. If a landowner consents, their results are shown below.
