HARRISBURG – Rep. Ryan Warner (R-Fayette/Westmoreland) has been appointed to the House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee by Speaker of the House Mike Turzai (R-Allegheny).

“It is an honor to be selected by the speaker to join this committee,” Warner said. “As a strong supporter of domestic energy, I am eager to promote Pennsylvania’s abundant natural resources. Domestic energy creates jobs at home, reduces our dependence on foreign oil and strengthens our national security.”

The House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee is responsible for legislative oversight of 45 different environmental laws in place in the Commonwealth, administered by both the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR). The committee addresses legislation involving clean air, land and water; radioactive and other waste disposal; recycling; and more.

The 52nd Legislative District includes the city of Connellsville; Dawson, Dunbar, Everson, Perryopolis, Seven Springs, South Connellsville and Vanderbilt boroughs; Bullskin, Connellsville, Dunbar, Lower Tyrone, Menallen, North Union, Perry, Saltlick and Upper Tyrone townships in Fayette County, along with Scottdale Borough, and part of East Huntingdon Township in Westmoreland County.
