Welcome!

If you are hearing about us for the first time through our interview on WKOK 1070AM's "On the Mark" program, our "Tax Fracking Now!" petition project, or our June radio interview on WGRC, we are glad you are here. Please read this website to find out more about our organization, and we hope you'll consider joining our mailing list or attending one of our future events.

What is CSCC?

CSCC (the Central Susquehanna Citizens Coalition) is a grassroots organization centered in Union County that also reaches out to the rest of the Central Susquehanna Valley. We seek to represent "the shortest path from conviction to action."

What does CSCC do?

Our biggest activity of 2011 has been our petition drive to "Tax Fracking Now!" We collected over 700 signatures from Pennsylvania residents favoring a severance tax on the Marcellus Shale gas drilling industry, and have delivered that petition in-person to our state representative and state senator. The full text of the online portion of the petition can be found here.

For a copy of our last two Annual Reports, describing all our other recent activities, please click here for 2009, or here for 2010.
