Program areas at Promote PT
Oil and gas education: address the invasion of ungd in the community by extending our knowledge and resources to residents. We educate communities facing unconventional gas development through our home resource guide workshops, webinars, and mentorships, offering a strategic template and ways to be successful in their own community. In addition to local support, we also participated in statewide campaigns addressing the failures of the pa department of environmental protection to protect pennsylvanians rights to clean air and pure water and working to stop the development and operation of the highly dangerous mariner east pipeline project.
Environmental monitoring - protect PT provides environmental monitoring services, scientifically testing air, noise, water and radon. The organization conducts monitoring around known sources of pollution in the community and offer monitoring services to community members concerned about their air, water and noise.
Legal advocacy: working with legal counsel, ppt advocates for our local communities by participating in gas development hearings and advocating for protective permit conditions and ordinances. We comment on policies enforced by the pa department of environmental protection and scrutinize new proposed sites for hidden environmental and human harms.
To educate residents and local lawmakers with factual and important information so that they may better protect themselves.
