The US natural gas industry started in 1821 at Fredonia, Chautauqua County, New York, when William Hart dug a well to a depth of 27 feet (8.2 m) into gas-bearing shale, then drilled a borehole 43 feet (13 m) further, and piped the natural gas to a nearby inn where it was burned for illumination. Soon many gas wells were drilled in the area, and ...

The field was discovered in 1876, but the size and magnitude of the field was not known until the 1880s. The field was the largest natural gas discovery up to that time, with an area of 5,120 square miles (13,300 km 2), somewhat smaller in area than the state of Connecticut, containing over 1 trillion cubic feet (28 × 10 ^ 9 m 3) of
The company denied the allegations, and said the presence of methane was a result of naturally occurring migration, and had shown up in nearby water wells long before it drilled its gas wells. The EPA said that natural gas drilling by the company has contributed to the contamination of at least 2 residential drinking water wells in the county ...
