Metgasco hits back at council bans



Current petroleum titles and applications in the Lismore state electorate

METGASCO has hit back at Lismore City Council's decision to impose a moratorium on all coal seam gas activities on council controlled land.
Metgasco chief executive Peter Henderson said yesterday that he was "most disappointed" with the council's reaction to proposed "low-risk" seismic testing.
"We agree with the council's own internal advice (that) it does not have the authority to reject or prevent work which has been approved by State Government," Mr Henderson said.
