Local Councils Consider Tighter Gas Control

Upper hunter shire councillors are today considering a wide-ranging recommendation proposing tighter controls on coalmining and coal seam gas extraction.
A report prepared by council environmental services director Murray James is recommending stricter regulations for the mining industry and the introduction of exclusion zones.
CSG exploration and extraction is the focus of the report, which suggests laws need to be reviewed to ensure the community is involved in mining developments.
