Citizenshale.org, an organization comprising interested Garrett County property owners, hosted an informational program last Wednesday at Garrett College, where participants included lawyers from the Office of the Attorney General, as well as local attorneys representing the Garrett County Bar Association. The purpose of the program was to help local property owners better understand their rights and preferred objectives when signing a natural gas lease. Pictured seated at the tables, from left, are: attorneys Robert Paye, Miriam Sincell, and Linda Sherbin of the Garrett County Bar Association’s pro bono legal committee; Erin Fitzsimmons and Jeff Darsie, representing the Maryland attorney general’s office; and Paul Roberts, one of the founders of CitizenShale.org. Attorney General Douglas Gansler also announced this week the formation of a campaign to basically extend the educational efforts of CitizenShale.org to other areas of western Maryland that lie atop the natural gas-rich Marcellus shale layer.
