Monday, August 12, 1pm, Ohio Department of Public Safety, Charles D. Shipley Building [Atrium], 1970 W. Broad St.

Ohio’s Oil and Gas Land Management Commission, under the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, will hold its next meeting on Monday, August 12, 2024, at 1pm.

During this meeting, the commission will discuss:

• Nominations to frack Egypt Valley Wildlife Area and Salt Fork State Park, as well as two parcels managed by the Ohio Department of Transportation

• Pending bids to frack Keen Wildlife Area, as well as four parcels managed by the Ohio Department of Transportation

See the full commission meeting agenda here.

Ohio citizens pay for and use these public lands, and we need to turn out to this meeting to let the commissioners know that we do not want them to be fracked.
