Updated Drilled Wells Data for PA

Three drilled wells datasets for Pennsylvania have been updated or created, including:

• 2011 Drilled Wells in Pennsylvania (2011-12-16) (all oil and gas wells)
• All MS Drilled Wells in PA (2011-12-16) (Marcellus Shale only), and
• PA Municipalities with MS Wells: Count and Density (Marcellus Shale only)

The last of the three datasets is the most unique, with data spatially joined to municipalities. The following two maps exhibit the Marcellus Shale related data that they contain:
