Dear Neighbors,
We have come a long way! The Enfield Town Board is considering whether to pass a ban on hydrofracking in Enfield, and NOW is the time they need to hear from you that you fully support it!
Click here for a draft of the Proposed Law.
While you all signed the petition, for some of you that was over two years ago, and a lot has happened since then. The Board needs to know you haven't gone away, or changed your minds, or have lost interest in this issue. They need to hear clearly from their constituents that we want this more than ever.
Please let them know by speaking your support at the upcoming Public Hearing on Tuesday, March 5 at the Enfield Schol cafeteria, 7:00 pm- or just writing a short note/postcard to the Town Board that expresses your support for the ban.
It's not necessary to convince them of the reasons this is the best choice for Enfield (though feel free to share whatever you are moved to). As your elected officials, they simply need to hear that you are in favor of passing this law. We want our Town Board members to feel confident that the majority of residents support this, and that they are acting appropriately on their behalf.
Letters can be written to:
Enfield Town Clerk
168 Enfield Main Road
Ithaca, NY 14850
Or emailed: enfieldclerk@hotmail.com
WE'RE REALLY CLOSE NOW! PLEASE HELP MAKE THIS A REALITY!

Gas exploration banned
In 2011 ENSAW petitioned the residents of Enfield to ban the process of high-volume slick-water hydraulic fracturing. In 2013 the Town of Enfield implemented a law banning gas and petroleum exploration along with production wastes. We are so very proud of our town and its residents.
Petition Results Presentation
Check out the presentation offered to the Enfield Town Board on October 12, 2011.
2017 and beyond
With a gas exploration ban in place, ENSAW is now pursuing various projects aimed at helping Enfield residents conserve energy and save money. Over the coming months, watch for information about community solar, LED light bulbs, Energy Navigator training and much more.
