This new voluntary disclosure further illustrates CNX’s commitment to openness and accountability as the company continues to set new standards for environmental reporting.

Radical Transparency in Action

This latest move is part of CNX’s broader shift away from static annual sustainability reports. Instead, the company is now updating its ESG Performance Scorecard quarterly, providing ongoing data releases on critical environmental, social, and governance topics—including NOVs and any penalties paid—across its entire operating footprint. This dynamic approach empowers stakeholders to track progress and hold the company accountable in real-time.

CNX’s Radical Transparency program is providing unprecedented access to environmental data and operational disclosures. Complementing the program is now the public NOV disclosure page detailing every violation notice received from federal, state, and local agencies.

Radical Transparency data was recently presented at the 2025 AWMA Air Quality Measurement Conference.

A Culture of Compliance and Proactive Stewardship

At the heart of CNX’s operations is a robust Environmental Management System overseen by the company’s Operational Excellence and Environmental Strategy teams. These skilled environmental compliance experts are dedicated to ensuring that CNX not only meets but often exceeds regulatory requirements, swiftly remediates any issues, and continuously seeks operational improvements. Every employee is required to immediately report any actual or potential environmental violations, reinforcing a culture of responsibility and ownership.

Inspection Data: Facts Over Optics

Transparency is not just about reporting violations—it’s about context. Between 2022 and 2023, CNX sites were inspected 969 times by the PA DEP Office of Oil and Gas Management—an average of nearly 1.5 inspections per day, every day of the year. Of these inspections:

In total, just 26 NOVs were issued during this period—24 of which were self-reported by CNX, underscoring the company’s proactive approach to compliance.

As discussed in the article, “Challenging Environmental NGO/Media Optics with Facts and Data,” it’s important to note that the public count of violations often appears inflated due to regulatory processes: a single incident can result in multiple code section citations and repeated inspection entries, even for the same event.

CNX works closely with regulators to resolve these issues quickly and efficiently, rarely appealing violations in order to avoid unnecessary strain on agency resources and taxpayer dollars.

Looking Ahead

By continuously updating its ESG Performance Scorecard and now providing public access to all NOVs, CNX is catalyzing a new era of responsible and transparent operations. The company’s approach demonstrates that energy development and environmental stewardship can—and must—go hand in hand.
