In this video clip, several New York county legislators talk about why they believed it necessary to ban fracking waste from use, storage or transportation across their counties. Since states haven’t shown much willingness to limit fracking or reject its waste, it’s great to see municipalities and county legislators taking action. I have several questions after watching the clip, though:

• Are the New York county legislators shown in this clip part of a unified coalition?
• How many New York counties have banned fracking waste? Is there a list somewhere?
• How do New York county legislators stand on the topic of fracking itself?
• Is the position of legislator on the Board of Legislators equivalent to a NJ freeholder?
• Has New York State itself taken a position against fracking waste?

Can anyone help me out?
