More on the drilling/flooding front: Chesapeake Energy has been very active in helping with post-Lee cleanup, as this Star-Gazette article details.

Meanwhile, Chesapeake has been working with local emergency management officials since remnants of Tropical Storm Lee dumped heavy rain across the Twin Tiers and caused a swollen Susquehanna River to spill over its banks.
So far, Chesapeake has donated 21,000 bottles and several tanker trucks of fresh drinking water, pumping equipment services to various townships, numerous cots and air mattresses for public shelters and help with transportation of equipment and materials.
On Wednesday, scores of Chesapeake workers helped residents with everything from demolition to cleaning.
