Exploratory Gas Wells Planned at Eastern Creek





A COAL seam gas company holding a lease covering most of Sydney may be planning to build exploratory wells at Eastern Creek.

Dart Energy has government approval to drill at inner-city St Peters and Channel 7 reported last week the company was planning a core drill site at Eastern Creek to test the quality of the coal seam.

More than 60 people gathered on Blacktown’s Village Green on Saturday to protest against the controversial method of mining.

Doonside teenager Ben Hammond helped start the Stop Coal Seam Gas Blacktown group and was surprised by the turnout.
