Since the 1800s, more than 760,000 oil and gas wells have been drilled in Pennsylvania—many without documentation or regulation. Today, an estimated half a million orphaned and abandoned wells remain unaccounted for, posing serious risks to both people and the environment, especially in Venango County. Join the Penn State Extension Energy Team, Environmental Defense Fund, and Oil Region Alliance to learn how to identify and report these hidden hazards. Discover what orphaned wells look like, why they matter, and how you can help protect your land and community. Plus, find out how you may be eligible to receive $100 for each undocumented well you report through the Oil Region Alliance program. This event is being offered at no charge to participants. Space is limited. Preregistration is required. https://extension.psu.edu/finding-abandoned-oil-and-gas-wells-in-venango-county
