From Leonard C. McIe

By Staff | Sep 14, 2011

As a free American citizen and a private resident of the state of West Virginia, with such rights as free speech and media, as with our news publications, I do like to execute those such rights.

The issue of my letter is with politics and the Marcellus gas shale drillings, the rights of property owners and tax payers, and for the benefits of such.

If Joe Manchin is really serious about jobs for state residents, and the good of all West Virginia residents, why can’t he not try to do something to prove such?

Such as with these gas well sites and ugly scars left by those on the properties of the private landowners. Such as planting of pine around the top outer edging of these well sites. And grass and bush holly on the ugly high back walls. To at least have a desirable view and blending back with the surrounding country sides. Or to start some kind of government work program to give state residents the jobs to do such.

These are just a few of the thoughts I’d have about this issue. As a personal and private state resident on my own private property and dwelling.
