We begin with a firm belief that the natural gas industry is essential, responsible, and inherently good for society at large.

The natural gas industry has a history of placing the safety of the community and workers as top priorities. For generations in Appalachia, the community is and has been the energy industry, and vice versa. Workers and leaders in the natural gas industry live in local communities, often near industry sites and facilities. Their children drink the same water as other children, and we all breathe the same air.

CNX is providing facts and data to all stakeholders and creating mutual trust, which serves as the basis for cooperation and real environmental and economic progress. Transparency is good for resident health, the industry worker, economic development, energy security, the environment, and community investments. We aim to lead the industry into a new era of responsible domestic energy development, and this effort begins that process. We call this our Radical Transparency program.

This comprehensive Radical Transparency program is our effort to ensure our families, neighbors, and the public at large have a full understanding of the natural gas industry and its critical role in the environment and economy.

We believe that the Radical Transparency program will definitively confirm for all stakeholders that there are no human health problems related to responsible natural gas development. We also believe that CNX will learn things through this data that will enable us to enhance our operating practices to make things even better.
