flag Woodwards sue NY over fracking ban, claiming it stripped land of economic value.

flag A New York family is suing the state over its ban on hydraulic fracturing, arguing the policy stripped their land of economic value, violating the Fifth Amendment. flag The Woodwards purchased the property in 2011 expecting to extract gas, but after the state expanded its ban to cover all extraction methods, they lost the ability to use their mineral rights. flag They claim the government cannot eliminate the productive use of private property without providing just compensation.
