While 50 percent of pipeline replacement workers may be local, says filmmaker David Morris, most of them are the laborers, “willing to compromise their community to make $8 to $10 per hour.”
His figures come from the research of economist Jannette Barth, one of many sources he used in making “FRACK the Movie,” a documentary about gas drilling in Pennsylvania and New York, which will be showing at the Matamoras Borough Annex on Tuesday, July 12, at 7 p.m.
