The headline suggests that the comment period has been extended, but the
body is just about a request to extend.
I'm guessing this is still just a request?
Thanks,

GILLIBRAND CALLS FOR EXTENDED PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD ON MARCELLUS SHALE
DRILLING
New Yorkers currently have until Nov 30 to comment. Senator Gillibrand
is requesting another month beyond that.
Senator Gillibrand:
"While drilling represents a tremendous economic opportunity, we need
assurance that the quest for new sources of energy does not come at the
expense of safe drinking water.... New York has an abundant supply of
fresh, clean water, and we must learn from the accidents that other
states have already experienced to avoid damage to our own precious
natural resources." Full report at http://www.nywellwatch.org/
