ERIE – A Western Pennsylvania energy provider is suing an Indiana County municipality in federal court for the second time, in order to reverse its law banning shale gas drilling waste injection wells.
Pennsylvania General Energy Company (PGE) of Warren filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on Dec. 9 versus Grant Township of Indiana County and the Grant Township Board of Supervisors, of Marion Center.
In June 2014, Grant Township stopped being a Second Class Township under state law and adopted a Community Bill of Rights Ordinance (CBORO) that prohibited corporations from depositing waste from oil and gas extraction in the township, in order to prevent plaintiff PGE from operating an injection well there.
