"ALBANY – At least 460,000 tons and 23,000 barrels of waste from Pennsylvania drilling operations have been taken in by a handful of New York landfills since 2010, according to a new analysis Thursday.
The report from Environmental Advocates of New York analyzed state data from Pennsylvania showing were natural-gas drillers reported to take their waste.
The data showed drillers have hauled waste to five landfills in New York from 2010 through 2014, including three along the Pennsylvania border: the Chemung County Landfill in Lowman; the Hakes Landfill in Painted Post, Steuben County; and the Hyland Landfill in Angelica, Allegany County."
