Central Coast Coal Mine Back on the Agenda



The massive Wallarah 2 coal project has been revived, with backer Korean Resources (KoRes) seeking approval from the NSW state government.

The underground coal mine was originally rejected in March, just prior to the state election, the Newcastle Herald reports.
Kerry Heywood, Wallarah 2 general manager, said the mine's owners met with NSW premier Barry O'Farrell who had "reiterated the government's commitment to merit based planning processes".
The proposal for the underground coal mine was previously rejected by planning minister Tony Kelly.
