The Obama Administration wants states to adopt these tougher new rules and apply them on private land where threequarters of all u. S. Fracing is done. Fracings been a controversial issue across pennsylvania for years. In january pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf restored a Natural Gas Drilling moratorium on state parks and forests.
