PA Gas Leasing Poll

As a landowner do you favor a "Severence Tax" based on production volume or an "Impact Fee" based on the number of wells drilled?

Whether and how Pennsylvania should tax the natural gas industry remains a hotly debated issue:

Severance Tax - with revenue shared with the entire state. (11 votes)

Severance Tax - with the majority or all revenue directed to counties impacted by drilling. (22 votes)

Impact Fee - with revenue shared with the entire state. (0 votes)

Impact Fee - with the majority or all revenue directed to counties impacted by drilling. (12 votes)

I favor no severance tax or impact fee. (10 votes)
