Gladstone panel not independent: Greens

The Queensland Greens say a team of experts reviewing water quality and seagrass health in and around Gladstone Harbour is too close to the dredging industry.

The Dredge Technical Reference Panel oversees dredging in Gladstone Harbour, and comprises marine and water quality experts, and representatives from the Queensland government and the Gladstone Ports Corporation.

The corporation is conducting the dredging program off Gladstone to prepare for the construction of two liquefied natural gas plants and export hubs at Curtis Island and the expansion of the Gladstone port.
