Gas Drilling Supporters React to Protest

Groups that support gas drilling have a much different view from opponents of what Governor Cuomo should do when it comes to natural gas drilling.
   
Bob Poloncic is chairman of the Vestal Gas Coalition, which represents 650 families who own 12,000 acres of land.

He says that the Governor needs to remember that the 80,000 landowners in the area who support fracking are also waiting for a decision.

"Even though we may not many of us be classified as large donors we are the voting public and we are landowners. We pay a lot of tax on that land and we feel we should be represented and we're trusting that the Governor will do that," said Bob Poloncic, Chairman of the Vestal Gas Coalition.
