Houston-Chesapeake Energy will not drill for natural gas in the upstate New York watershed from which New York City derives its drinking water, a company spokesman said October 28. "It's a business decision," said Jim Gipson, director of media relations for the Oklahoma City-based company. "We believe we can drill safely anywhere."
