A HINTERLAND businesswoman has declared war on coal seam gas mining in the region.
About 80 per cent of the Scenic Rim region is covered by coal seam gas exploration licences and Mt Barney Lodge owner Tracey Larkin is fighting to have them scrapped.
And the fight has just begun.
"The Scenic Rim will become the 'Industrial Bin' if coal and seam gas mining goes ahead," Mrs Larkin said.
Arrow Energy has already drilled in 20 locations from Beaudesert to northern NSW, with more exploration planned and mines possibly to follow, she said.
