The tightly-regulated development of natural gas is without question an industrial process. And like all industrial activities, there is some risk. But natural gas producers and government officials continue to work collaboratively to ensure this risk is mitigated at every step of the process. By leveraging new, more efficient technologies and putting in place common sense regulatory safeguards, the shared goal of protecting our environment continues to be achieved all while producing abundant supplies of clean-burning, job-creating American natural gas.

Our Guiding Principles are anchored in our industry’s commitment to protecting our environment, in addition to the host of state and federal regulations that govern natural gas development. After all, we live here too – and want to ensure a clean environment for future generations.
