The project, proposed by Cannonsburg-based Olympus Energy, is located on a 24-acre property off Route 51 in Allegheny County. The well pad will sit roughly 1,500 feet from the high school property line and is near Round Hill Park.
Sandra Hearn spent 37 years of her teaching career taking advantage of Elizabeth Forward High School’s rural campus. She held health and physical education classes outside whenever possible and opened the windows on hot spring and fall days.
While Ms. Hearn retired in 2005, the Elizabeth Township resident is now part of a community group fighting a natural gas well pad that is under construction on a property adjacent to the high school. “You’re already competing with so much going on in the classroom let alone something like this,” Ms. Hearn said. “You look out the window and there they are with all this stuff right outside this school building. So [I’m] worried about the noise and what’s in the air from all the dirt and the dust.”
