The NSW Department of Planning is writing the Coal and Gas Strategy for the state [link]. It’s essential that public comment highlights the need to protect rivers (and people!) from the effects of coal and coal seam gas mining.
For some background, you can read the scoping paper [link].
The closing date for public feedback is Friday, 15 April 2010. In your submission, make sure you address the terms of reference [link].
Submissions should be sent to:
