SYDNEY (Dow Jones)--Australian Environment Minister Tony Burke still intends to make a decision on whether to approve two gas export projects in Queensland state on Friday, a government spokesman said Wednesday.
"Nothing's changed at this stage, the decision will be made on Friday," a spokesman for the minister told Dow Jones Newswires.
The identification of trace levels of cancer-causing chemicals in coal seam gas wells being drilled by a rival project has sparked concerns the minister could delay his decision.
