Urbina--Drillers Moving In On South Africa
Farmers and others see 'fracking' as threat to thirsty South Africa land
Saturday, December 31, 2011
By Ian Urbina, The New York Times
KAROO, South Africa -- Covering much of the roughly 800 miles between Johannesburg and Cape Town, this arid expanse -- its name means "thirsty land" -- sees less rain in some parts than the Mojave Desert.
Even so, Shell and several other large energy companies hope to drill thousands of natural gas wells in the region, using a new drilling technology that can require 1 million gallons of water or more for each well. Companies will also have to find a way to dispose of all the toxic wastewater or sludge that each well produces, since the closest landfill or industrial-waste facility that can handle the waste is hundreds of miles away.
"Around here, the rain comes on legs," said Chris Hayward, 51, a brawny, dust-covered farmer in Beaufort West, quoting a Karoo saying about how rare and fleeting precipitation is in the area.

PENNVEST, DEP Announce First Nutrient Credit Trading Auction for 2012
PENNVEST, DEP Announce First Nutrient Credit Trading Auction for 2012
Harrisburg - The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority and the Department of Environmental Protection announced today they will host an auction March 21, 2012, for the sale and purchase of nutrient credits in the Susquehanna and Potomac watersheds.
The auction will be a “forward” auction, where certified credits will be sold at auction, delivered later and applied to 2012 and future compliance years. The auction will afford wastewater treatment plants in these two watersheds the opportunity to purchase credits as a means of meeting their nitrogen and phosphorus discharge limits for the compliance years.
The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) is hosting the auctions to encourage the trading of nutrient credits in the Susquehanna and Potomac watersheds. DEP’s nutrient credit trading program provides a cost-effective means for facilities that are subject to nitrogen and phosphorus limits to meet those limits by working with other facilities, non-point sources or both.
PENNVEST has chosen Markit Inc. to provide the platform for enrollment and eligibility, auctions and registry services. Markit, a financial information services company, has provided operations and infrastructure services to environmental programs worldwide.
PENNVEST anticipates charging buyers and sellers 2.5 cents per credit to offset administrative costs.

Robert J.G. Whelpley of Sun City West, Arizona; Wellsville Native
WELLSVILLE —On Dec. 25, 2011, Robert J.G. Whelpley of Sun City West, Arizona, was called to the Lord’s house after a brief illness. His wife and daughter were with him at the time of his death.Robert was born on Nov. 5, 1929, to William and Marion (Senft) Whelpley in Wellsville. He graduated from Wellsville High School. On Nov. 11, 1950 he married Agatha Wasserloos (Bunny), who survives him.
Bob’s interest in agriculture and hard work ethic led him to start farming on Voorhees Hill in Wellsville while still in high school.
Also, he was honored with many Future Farmer awards and was recognized nationally by the American Agriculturalist as “American Farmer of the Year.”
After graduation, he became a dairy farmer on Trapping Brook Road in Andover, where he and Bunny would start a family. He went to work for Paul Culbert and Sons for several years and then purchased the John Deere dealership in 1958. He owned and operated Whelpley Implement Company in Wellsville until 1982, when he sold the business and retired. Mr. and Mrs. Whelpley officially relocated to Sun City West in 1988 and enjoyed many wonderful days with their new friends.
Bob was an individual who did not make public showings of his compassion but preferred to do his good deeds in private. He loaned people equipment and tools they needed in an emergency. He gave to individuals and organizations to help them, always without the desire for recognition.
Bob and Bunny attended church regularly, first at First Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in Wellsville, and for many years at the Crown of Life Lutheran Church in Sun City West, Ariz.
Bob is survived by his beloved wife, Bunny; sons, Dr. Robert (Joan) Whelpley of Almond, Dennis (Deborah) Whelpley of Sackets Harbor, John (Karen) Whelpley of Olean and their daughter Dr. Janet Whelpley of Syracuse. Bob also has five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by a brother, William Whelpley, and a son, David Whelpley.
There will be no visitation and a private family service will be scheduled later at the convenience of the family. Memorials may be made to Gideon’s International or the Salvation Army.
