==Background==
Weeks of public protest followed a controversial "budget repair bill" that Republican Governor [[Scott Walker]] introduced, February 11, 2011. Collective bargaining for public workers started in Wisconsin 50 years ago. For unions, the heart of the controversy was not the health care and pension contributions contained in the bill, but the direct attack on the ability of unions to organize and collectively bargain. A series of measures in the budget repair bill, including annual re-certification of unions with a majority of all eligible voters (not just a majority of those voting), will make it difficult for unions to function or effectively represent workers.

{{#badges: CoalSwarm|Navbar-Indonesiacoal}} {{stub}}The '''Aries mine''', which is owned by [[Essar Energy]], is located in the Kutai region of East Kalimantan in Indonesia.

In March 2010 Bllomberg reported that Essar Energy had agreed to acquire the mining project which, according to a statement from the company, could contain up to 100 million tonnes of thermal coal and that production could commence within a year.<ref>Dinakar Sethuraman, [http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aGV5r2I7mb.o "India’s Essar Buys Aries Coal Mines in Indonesia (Update1)"], ''Bloomberg'', March 25, 2010.</ref> On its website Essar Energy states that the project has 64 million tonnes "of mineable reserves."<ref>Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/section_level1.aspx?cont_id=i6eUTkvtRos= "History"], Essar Energy website, accessed February 2012.</ref>

==Export to India for Essar power station==

Essar Energy states that coal for its proposed 3,000 megawatt [[Salaya power plant]] in India would be based on imported coal from the company's "captive coal mines in Indonesia and Mozambique." (Essar is proposing that 2,400MW of the plant be coal-fired with the remainder from petroleum coke).<ref name="Power">Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/section_level1.aspx?cont_id=vyEUtlZ3m98= "Power"], Essar Energy website, accessed February 2012.</ref> In its April 2010 Prospectus Essar Energy states that coal from the Aries mine would be used to supply the Salaya power station.<ref>Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/upload/articlepg_attachment/Essar_Energy_plc_prospectus_30_April_2010__P_I_E_2042011102203.pdf "Prospectus"], April 2010, page 87. (Large pdf)</ref>

In its 2010 annual report the company stated that the mine "is currently progressing through its approval process ahead of the
commencement of mining. First production is expected in the fourth quarter of 2011. In the interim, the Salaya I power project will have the benefit of its contract with Essar Shipping to source coal at a landed price of US$55/tonne. Commissioning of the first unit of the Salaya I plant is due to commence in May 2011."<ref>Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/upload/articlepg_attachment/Essar_Energy_annual_reports_and_accounts.pdf "2010 Annual Report"], Essar Energy, April 2011, page 26.</ref>

{{#badges: CoalSwarm}} '''Shale gas''' is [[natural gas]] extracted from rock shale. Shale gas is one of a number of "unconventional" sources of natural gas; other unconventional sources of natural gas include [[coalbed methane]], tight sandstones, and [[methane hydrates]]. Shale has low matrix permeability, so gas production in commercial quantities requires fractures to provide permeability. Shale gas has been produced for years from shales with natural fractures; the shale gas boom in recent years has been due to modern technology in [[hydraulic fracturing]] (fracking) to create extensive artificial fractures around well bores.<ref>Dan Jarvie, [http://energy.ihs.com/NR/rdonlyres/D341AE18-4532-4B6E-AAF8-842FDD71A138/0/f32sjarviefinalworldwideshaleresourceplays.pdf "Worldwide shale resource plays,"] PDF file, ''NAPE Forum'', August 26, 2008.</ref>

According to the U.S. [[Energy Information Administration]] (EIA), U.S. shale gas production has increased fourteen-fold from 2002 to 2012; as of 2012, shale gas accounts for 22% of U.S. gas production and 32% of total remaining recoverable gas resources in the United States. By 2030, EIA projects that shale gas will represent 14% of total global gas supplies, and has launched the "Global Shale Gas Initiative" (GSGI) to help facilitate this projection.<ref>[http://www.state.gov/s/ciea/gsgi/ "Global Shale Gas Initiative (GSGI)"] U.S. [[Energy Information Administration]], accessed January 2012.</ref>

==Introduction==

==History==

==Disposal wells==

==Proposed export terminal==
[[Dominion]] Cove Point received authorization on October 7, 2011, from the Department of Energy to enter into contracts to export liquefied natural gas to countries that have free trade agreements with the United States. Under the authorization, Dominion is permitted to enter into multi-year contracts up to 25 years long with companies wishing to export natural gas to countries with free trade agreements. The authorization is for up to 1 billion cubic feet per day, using liquefaction equipment at the Cove Point facility to convert natural gas into liquefied natural gas.

On October 3, 2011, Dominion filed a second application with the Department of Energy, requesting authorization to export to additional countries not included in the first application. In this application, Dominion said exports would be in the public's interest because studies show they could provide an "enormous economic stimulus, provide energy price stability, promote the continued development of domestic natural gas and natural gas liquids, create thousands of new jobs in the oil and gas industry, increase tax revenues and improve the balance of trade."<ref>[http://www.dom.com/business/gas-transmission/cove-point/lng-exports.jsp "Dominion Receives DOE Authorization to Export LNG"] Dominion: LNG Exports, accessed February 2012.</ref>

On February 6, 2012, the Sierra Club filed a motion to intervene with the Department of Energy, protesting the export of [[Marcellus Shale]] gas (among other sources) from the Cove Point facility, saying it would raise gas and electricity prices nationally and expand damaging extraction practices in the shale plays. The group also called for a full environmental impact study (EIS) on the effects of (and alternatives to) the increased Marcellus extraction embodied in the export proposal - such an EIS would be the first full EIS on Marcellus shale fracking.

==Citizen activism==

==Legislative issues==
* The Fracturing Responsibility and Awareness of Chemicals Act (H.R. 2766), (S. 1215)--was introduced to both houses of the the United States Congress on June 9, 2009, and aims to repeal the exemption for hydraulic fracturing in the Safe Drinking Water Act.<ref>[http://www.progressohio.org/blog/2011/03/the-fracking-of-ohio-of-our-state-parks.html "The 'Fracking' Of Ohio State Parks"] Progress Ohio, March 16, 2011.</ref>

* The Marcellus Shale Safe Drilling Act of 2011 (HB852/SB634) - requires the Maryland Department of the Environment to conduct a study to assess impacts of drilling on the environment and local communities before drilling permits are issued.<ref>[http://maryland.sierraclub.org/action/p0319.asp "Hydrofracking: Is it Safe?"] Sierra Club, accessed February 2012.</ref>

'''J. Paul Getty III''' (died in 2011) was a grandson of the oil baron [[J. Paul Getty]]. He was kidnapped when young, and the "aftermath of the ordeal left Mr. Getty as a reckless personality; the year after his release he married a German photographer whose name has been variously reported as [[Gisela Zacher]] and Martine Zacher. They lived for a time in New York, where they consorted with the art crowd of [[Andy Warhol]]. Mr. Getty became a drug user and a heavy drinker. His grandfather had died in 1976, and after his overdose, he sued his father for $28,000 a month to pay for his medical needs.

"Mr. Getty’s marriage ended in divorce. Beside his son, survivors include his mother, who cared for him after his stroke; a brother, Mark; two sisters, Aileen and Ariadne; a stepdaughter, [[Anna Getty]]; and six grandchildren and stepgrandchildren. "<ref>New York Times [http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/08/world/europe/08gettyobit.html J. Paul Getty III, 54, Dies; Had Ear Cut Off by Captors], organizational web page, accessed February 6, 2012.</ref> His son is the actor [[Balthazar Getty]].

"Anna Getty has played many roles over the course of her remarkable life: Actress. Fashion maven. Chef. [[Kundalini]] yoga teacher. Writer. Mother. Environmental Activist. And now green living and holistic lifestyle expert. But through it all she has maintained a keen sense of self, a grounded perspective and a passion for healthy living, spiritual fulfillment and respect for the environment. She calls this conscious mentality [[PureStyle Living]].

"PureStyle Living is the idea that a fabulous Prada bag (as long as it's vintage or second hand) and a bunch of organic kale needn’t be mutually exclusive, that to live healthy does not require you to rule out the odd French fry (as long as it is organic,) the belief that pure style is not an oxymoron. It’s bracingly modern attitude that Anna has adopted wholeheartedly – and wants to share with the world.

"The great granddaughter of [[J. Paul Getty I]], daughter of bohemian parents [[J. Paul Getty III]] and photographer [[Gisela Getty]], and sister of actor [[Balthazar Getty]], Anna was educated at the Sorbonne, became fluent in French and German, then returned to the U.S. to pursue her acting career. The Hollywood lifestyle, while offering its share of glamour, left her ultimately unfulfilled. “I didn’t feel I was being of service,” she reflects. “It was all about me.”

"Anna decided to pursue an interest in cooking. She became an assistant to revered organic chef Akasha Richmond, whose catering company, [[Akasha's Visionary Cuisine]], has served a discriminating A-list celebrity clientele for fifteen years. Anna’s work with Akasha gave her a deep understanding of the complexity, sophistication and healing powers of organic cuisine. And brought her to the world of yoga.

"Akasha introduced Anna to legendary yoga teacher [[Gurmukh Khalsa]] (who has taught Cindy Crawford, Madonna and others). It was then that Anna made a decision to not just live a healthy and balanced lifestyle, but to teach it to others. She became a certified Kundalini Yoga and Prenatal Yoga teacher and specializes in womens’ yoga. She is on staff at Golden Bridge where teaches a variety of classes and workshops.

"After her marriage to screenwriter [[Gregory Pruss]], Anna started an innovative Conscious Preconception plan for pregnancy. Perhaps it was fate, but three weeks after receiving her prenatal yoga certification, Anna became pregnant. She was amazed at the positive effect – both physically and mentally – that a regular yoga regimen had on her pregnancy. And, again, she wanted to share it...

"Anna adds author to her resume and has embarked on a 2-book deal with Chronicle Books. The 1st is a green entertainment book for the holidays called I am Dreaming of a Green Christmas due out in November of 2009. The 2nd is a cookbook titled, Anna Getty's Easy Green Organic due out in the Spring of 2010. Last year she designed jewelry for Energy Muse, titled "Divine Creation." Anna plans to take PureStyle Living even farther: looking to create the ultimate in her green, organic and holistic lifestyle brand through multi-media outlets. .. She blogs for various websites including [[Avalon Organics]], Hotmomsclub.com, Healthy Child Healthy World, Ecoperks, among others. She is also a contributer to the Hot Mom’s Handbook." <ref>PureStyle Living [http://www.purestyleliving.com/about-anna About Anna], organizational web page, accessed February 6, 2012.</ref>

"Anna sits on the Board for [[Healthy Child Healthy World]] , [[Environmental Media Association]] and works tirelessly with the [[Organic Center]]." <ref>PureStyle Living [http://www.purestyleliving.com/greening-with-anna Greening with Anna], organizational web page, accessed February 6, 2012.</ref>

{{#Badges:CoalSwarm|navbar-Indiacoal}}'''Mahan I power station''' is a proposed 1200 megawatt coal-fired power station which has been promoted by [[Essar Energy]]. The plant, comprising two 600MW generating units, has been proposed to be built in Singrauli district in Madhya Pradesh, India. Coal for the proposed plant would be sourced from the [[Mahan coal block]] through a 50:50 joint venture with [[Hindlaco Industries]].<ref>Hindalco Industries, [http://www.hindalco.com/projects/greenfield_projects.htm "Greenfield projects"], Hindalco Industries website, accessed November 2011.</ref> <ref name="Power">Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/section_level1.aspx?cont_id=vyEUtlZ3m98=#Mahan-one "Power"], Essar Energy website, accessed February 2012.</ref> ('''Note:''' this plant is not to be confused with Hindlaco Industries 900MW [[Mahan Aluminium power station]] which is also drawing coal from the Mahan coal block.)

==Coal mine stalled==

In its 2010 annual report Essar complained that the Mahan coal black had not received approval for development. "While we are optimistic of a favourable outcome, we will not be in a position to supply coal from our own mines ahead of the commissioning of the 1,200 MW Mahan I coal fired power project. The first unit of this power plant will commence commissioning
in September 2011. We have therefore applied to Coal India Limited for tapering coal linkage until our own mines are operating at full capacity. We expect to receive this clearance shortly," Essar reported.<ref>Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/upload/articlepg_attachment/Essar_Energy_annual_reports_and_accounts.pdf "2010 Annual Report"], Essar Energy, April 2011, page 26.</ref>

==Mahan II Expansion==

In its 2010 annual report Essar Energy refers to a 600MW expansion of the Mahan power station as being under "development" by the company. No other details about the project are mentioned.<ref>Essar Energy, [http://www.essarenergy.com/upload/articlepg_attachment/Essar_Energy_annual_reports_and_accounts.pdf "2010 Annual Report"], Essar Energy, April 2011, page 13.</ref> The company's webpage, which only lists projects "under construction" and those already operating, does not mention the possible expansion.<ref name="Power"/>

* the [[Mahan mine]] in India;
* the [[Chakla mine]] in India;
* the [[Ashok Karkata mine]] in India;
* the [[Aries mine]] in Indonesia; and the
* the [[Cambulatsitsi mine]] in Mozambique;

It also listed the [[Neptune mine]] in India as a project which it was seeking to complete the purchase of.

In its 2010 annual report Essar complained that "we are still awaiting forest clearance for our Mahan, Chakla and Ashok Karkata coal blocks which will provide fuel for the Mahan I and Tori power stations. This clearance is delaying the development of a number of coal blocks in India and as a result, an Empowered Group of Ministers was formed by the Prime Minister’s Office to resolve all cases where significant progress has been made on construction of the power plant. Despite a visit to our sites in July 2010 and a favourable recommendation, we have not yet received forest clearance."

:"While we are optimistic of a favourable outcome, we will not be in a position to supply coal from our own mines ahead of the commissioning of the 1,200 MW Mahan I coal fired power project. The first unit of this power plant will commence commissioning
in September 2011. We have therefore applied to Coal India Limited for tapering coal linkage until our own mines are operating at full capacity.
