2026 Annual Meeting Registration Now Open

PCPG’s 2026 Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, February 12, 2026, at the Best Western Central Hotel & Conference Center in Harrisburg, PA. We are excited to once again offer a variety of topics, including enhancing inspections for natural gas exploration and production assets, modern reprocessing of vintage seismic data, geologic consulting on special projects and emergencies among abandoned mine lands of Pennsylvania, and more. Registration/networking opens at 8:00 AM.

For our students and young professionals, we will offer a separate interactive learning session focusing on data management, modeling, and interpretation. Registration for that session is not yet open for enrollment.

As always, we will have a luncheon and networking with the event followed by a Continental Drifters reception to close the day. We will also be hosting the Annual Dunst Memorial Fund tricky tray raffle fundraiser. Visit the PCPG website for the agenda download and the registration page.  Hope to see everyone there.


PADEP Act 2 Training Update

Posted 25 June 2025: PCPG, in collaboration with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP), has been diligently working to update and deliver the Act 2 Land Recycling training series. While PCPG remains committed to launching the training webinars and in-person session as soon as possible, PADEP's internal policy and communications review process has extended beyond the originally anticipated timeline.

PCPG continues to coordinate closely with PADEP to move the process forward and finalize the program. Please stay tuned for updates on the dates for the training sessions. At this time, we anticipate the earliest the sessions may be available is October 2025.
