NSW Govt Won't Identify CSG Mining Spots

Energy Minister Chris Hartcher has refused to say where coal seam gas extraction might take place in NSW, saying it will be left to the proper processes.

Mr Hartcher on Tuesday would not guarantee that coal seam gas extraction won't take place at St Peter's, in inner Sydney, or in rural parts of NSW.

"I am not going to say where coal seam gas extraction is or isn't going to take place," he told Macquarie Radio on Tuesday.

"(But) we are determined we will not see a repetition of what happened in Queensland here in NSW, which is why we've set into place a large number of measures to ensure we do get the balance right."
