Sportsmen Alliance for Marcellus Conservation Summit Meeting

The Sportsmen Alliance for Marcellus Conservation is focused on ensuring that hunters, anglers and others who enjoy the outdoors have a voice in the debate about how to balance natural gas drilling /slick water / fracking with important values, including clean water, healthy habitats and our hunting & angling heritage.

Sportsmen and women, and conservation groups are working together to identify and propose solutions to mitigate the impacts from gas drilling and hydraulic fracturing on hunting, fishing and trapping experiences.
