I thought it was interesting since it discusses the leases on the land. Nowhere near WV, but still something to consider. =)

Thanks for sharing. Yes implications about companies’ needing to drill to hold leases could apply in other parts of the country as well.

I really interested in seeing how all this falls out in relationship to natural gas. What could or might happen, if anything. For instance, many companies (Antero etc) are drilling for/getting natural gas in WV. How does this economic situation affect them?
