At 9 billion gallons of water used per year, water withdrawn for Marcellus Shale drilling would account
for 0.25% of all New York freshwater withdrawals in a given year and 0.95% of all water withdrawn for
drinking and domestic use. 10.6 billion gallons per year would be 0.29% of total freshwater withdrawals and 1.1% of water withdrawn for drinking and domestic use.
