Attached is a spreadsheet reflecting projections of DECs staffing needs for the permitting of
high-volume hydraulic fracturing in the state. A full description of the types of activity staff
would be undertaking was included in the August 16, 2011 White Paper entitled State Resource
Needs, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
Approximately 140 new positions will be needed to implement this program effectively. Of
these, a large portion will be in the DEC Regional Offices, which will be conducting most of the
well pad inspections and other field work. Most of these positions would be in DEC Regions 7
and 8, which include the Southern Tier.
In developing these projections, we made the following assumptions:
x
The proposed permit conditions and other requirements contained in the Supplemental
Generic Environmental Impact Statement for High-Volume Hydraulic Fracturing as
proposed on September 7, 2011 will be adopted. This may or may not be the case,
however, since those requirements are subject to modification pending completion of the
environmental review process.
The number of permits issued will increase over the first five years and then level off for
a period of time (DEC estimates moving from 75 in year one to 1,300 in year 5). See
page 5 of the White Paper. However, even though permit applications will ramp up over
time, more staff is needed upfront because of the need to train new staff.
While the costs represented in the chart reflect full-year salaries for State Fiscal Year
2012-13, it is likely that staff would not be hired until halfway through the fiscal year.
Information technology may expedite some of the processes, but most of the systems
discussed in the White Paper are not yet in place and will require staff support.
