Gas companies profit, Ohioans bemoan lack of jobs

Residents in eight Ohio counties believe big business is giving them the shaft. Belmont, Carroll, Columbiana, Guernsey, Harrison, Jefferson, Monroe and Noble County citizens said a promise of more jobs in fracking is not being met. Fracking drills water, sand and a chemical mix into cracked rock formations to release trapped oil or natural gas to produce shale gas.

A 2023 economic impact study by the American Petroleum Institute suggested 50,000 industry jobs would be created in Ohio. The absence of reinvestment in communities hosting fracking operations is considered troubling by industry experts, especially amid a weakening job market. Big business and policymakers are “turning their heads the other way,” O’Leary contended. "There are surprisingly few

Fairfield County farms included in Ohio preservation effort

Fairfield County is among 36 Ohio counties where family farms have been approved for permanent farmland preservation through the state's Local Agricultural Easement Purchase Program , a move that will help keep agricultural land in production for future generations. According to a community announcement, the Ohio Department of Agriculture approved local sponsors to purchase agricultural easements on 58 family farms totaling 5,165 acres across Ohio, including farms in Fairfield County. The easements are funded through the Clean Ohio Fund and administered by local sponsors such as counties, townships, land trusts and soil and water conservation districts. Once an easement is purchased, the land is permanently protected for agricultural use. The program is designed to support Ohio's food and agriculture industry by helping prevent farmland from being converted to other uses. To qualify, farms must be at least 40 acres or adjacent to a preserved farm, actively farmed, enrolled in the Current Agricultural Use Value program, demonstrate good stewardship, receive local government support and not be located near significant development pressure. Landowners can use easement proceeds however they choose, though many reinvest the money into their farming operations. Farmland preservation expands across Ohio The Local Agricultural Easement Purchase Program is funded
