How-To_DEC Search Hints

The DEC web site is very big and it can be frustrating to navigate. The information you want is probably there but where?

http://www.dec.ny.gov/energy/1634.html this link will get you into the heart of searching for drilling application dates or find any existing well - even some out of production. Embedded in the 2nd paragraph is a phrase that will allow many search parameters. Click on "searchable database for oil and gas information."

This is the only notification tool the DEC relies on to let the public and municipalities know when a drilling application has been accepted. In 4-8 weeks that application may lead to a drilling permit, issued by the DEC. The information is updated weekly, mid week.
