The Shapiro administration marked a milestone on Wednesday by plugging its 400th abandoned gas well in North Fayette Township, Allegheny County. Former Pittsburgh Steeler Jerome Bettis was present at the site, where his company, M&A Resources, assisted with the process. “Milestones like this don’t happen because of one person or one organization. They happen when leaders set a vision, partners work together, and dedicated people show up every day ready to get the job done,” Bettis said. Thousands of abandoned wells remain across Pennsylvania, with some still unidentified. Officials are asking residents to report abandoned or orphaned wells to the Department of Environmental Protection.
