More than 30 acres at Egypt Valley Wildlife Area in Belmont County are open to fracking, following action by the Ohio Oil and Gas Land Management Commission on Dec. 9.
A winning bid to lease the parcel’s mineral rights was submitted by Gulfport Appalachia LLC. Gulfport Appalachia was also awarded the lease for nearly five acres along State Route 800 in Monroe County. That parcel is owned by the Ohio Department of Transportation (DOT).
