"SOME 30 people attended the Whiporie coal seam gas seminar hosted by the Clarence Valley Against Coal Seam Gas Mining group on Wednesday night.

Group spokesperson Katie Doyle said locals appreciated being informed about the potential dangers of CSG and their legal rights.

Companies such as Metgasco and Red Sky Mining have petroleum leases over large sections of the Clarence Valley and Red Sky intends to establish large scale gas wells and an energy station in the Whiporie area.

Ms Doyle said one woman had been approached repeatedly by a Red Sky Mining for access to her property but she was not interested because she was trying to run an organic farm.

Plans for future meetings can be found on the group's Facebook page in the near future."

So where are they trying to gain access?? Both Talma and Annvale have had wells drilled with prior landowner approval.

Beats me.........

Gaspew ;)
