Registration: EPA Hydraulic Fracturing Public Informational Meeting

September 13 & 15
Broome County Forum Theater, Binghamton, NY

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has selected a new venue and dates for the public meeting on EPA's upcoming hydraulic fracturing study originally scheduled for August 12, 2010. The meeting will now be held at the Broome County Forum Theater in Binghamton, New York, on September 13th and 15th, 2010.

EPA will hold four identical sessions:

Dates: Monday, September 13, 2010 and Wednesday, September 15, 2010
Location: Broome County Forum Theater, 236 Washington St., Binghamton
Time: All individuals who pre-registered for the August 12 meetings will retain their registration for the September 13 and 15 meetings. Because the timing of the sessions has changed from a one-day event to a two-day event and EPA has added another meeting session, EPA needs pre-registered individuals to specify the session they would like to attend.

If you registered as an attendee for the August 12 session, please enter your information in the space provided below, and select the session you would like to attend. If you are registering for the first time, please follow the same procedure. Please note that a limited number of speaking slots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. You may only speak at ONE session. If you would like attend multiple sessions, please register for one session at a time.

EPA is expecting room-capacity crowds. Pre-registering helps EPA plan the meeting logistics and increases the likelihood that individuals will be able to attend their preferred sessions. Online and telephone registration (1-866-477-3655) will remain open through 5:00 pm, September 10, 2010. Those who are not pre-registered may still register to attend or provide verbal comment on the day of the meeting, time permitting.

Written comments can be sent to hydraulic.fracturing@epa.gov, or to Jill Dean, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Mail Code 4606M, Washington, DC 20460.

For additional questions or comments, please email hydraulic.fracturing@epa.gov or call 1-866-477-3635. Meeting information may be found on the EPA Hydraulic Fracturing Study website at http://water.epa.gov/type/groundwater/uic/class2/hydraulicfracturing/wells_hydroout.cfm.

Credentialed members of the media are encouraged to RSVP to senn.john@epa.gov by 5;00 pm, September 10, 2010. There will be a separate media registration table at the venue.
