Chenango Delaware Otsego Gas Group Position on Selective Protections by the State of New York:

CDOG opposes any New York State natural gas drilling legislation or agency regulation that effectively provides separate and unequal environmental protection, for different people, different counties, or different watersheds within New York State. A gas extraction industry process that is considered too environmentally unsafe to be used within a particular watershed (e.g. New York City's) is not safe for use in any other watershed; and therefore should not be permitted for use anywhere within this state.

The cast of characters has changed a little, but the issues remain remarkably unchanged.
