I have not done a thorough review, but since this is likely to get a lot of press, be aware that the study admits three glaring weaknesses.

1)  The study assumes that local property owners own their mineral rights and we see lease revenue as a gain in income.

2)  the study assumes that all workers are "homogeneous", and have an equal chance of getting jobs with fracking companies.  But an older worker without the specialized skills needed for fracking is very unlikely to ever get a job, or the training to even compete for those jobs.

3) The study does not address climate change or incorporate the Social Cost of Carbon.

Those will likely ring true to many listeners in West Virginia, and we should emphasize those to the industry people who will tout this study.
