GAS company AGL has agreed with protestors at Gloucester not to attempt to send any trucks through an impromptu blockade today.
Landowners and residents launched the blockade on late Monday to stop AGL from putting a coal seam gas (CSG) drill rig into place, angry that the company had approval to proceed with 110 gas wells.
“AGL has made this decision to allow open discussions to continue,” AGL spokesman Nathan Vass told The Land.
Barrington-Gloucester- Stroud Preservation Alliance (BGSPA) spokesperson Graeme Healy said it was a positive move.
“We trust them on that, and their willingness to negotiate and we are considering our position and clarifying what we are willing to accept in terms of a water study,” he said.
