On a damp and dreary morning in late October, DMH Fellowship founder Stephen Bosnyak returned to the site of the abandon well with Richard Freese, a representative from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection.  Freese examined the opening in the ground and logged the coordinates into his handheld GPS unit.  He then proceeded to explain the lengthy process of 'capping' abandon wells to Bosnyak.  When asked about the possibility of the abandon well being the remains of the Snee oil derrick,  Freese was skeptical.  The D.E.P. agent's expertise led him to the conclusion that the opening in the soil was nothing more that an abandon water well.  After discussing the potential dangers and possible solutions, the two men headed out of the woods.  Freese stated that he would take the information that he had collected back to the D.E.P. and record it.  In the meantime, Bosnyak was left to continue overseeing the preparations to seal off the opening.
