Following the successful public meeting and information session held recently in Warwick, the Southern Downs Protection Group will hold a second event, this time in Stanthorpe.
The meeting, to be held between 2pm and 4pm on Saturday at the Anglican Church Hall, Corundum Street, is open to all concerned residents who wish to learn if their properties are covered by exploration permits for coal and coal seam gas mining or other extractive industries.
Southern Downs Protection Group co-founder Leeanne Undery said that, following the success of the inaugural information session in Warwick, the group was keen to provide information on the issue to the residents located in the southern reaches of the region.
“Even though areas around Stanthorpe are covered mostly with mineral permits, these industries will have the same impacts on our communities and local rural and tourism industries,” Mrs Undery said.
