Map: Broke 2330 A National action group formed in the Hunter Valley at the weekend says its first priority is to seek a moratorium on new coal seam gas and coal mining developments.

Representatives from Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales met in the township of Broke where the local community's fighting a gas exploration project.

AGL Energy currently has 10 test wells in the area.

Hunter Valley Protection Alliance spokesman John Thompson says those attending the meeting expressed similar concerns about the threat to water supplies, agriculture and their lifestyles.

"We have actually nominated our initial committee, representatives from the states," he said.

"That committee is charged with building the action strategy that we will exercise over the next several months to press the case so that the broader public becomes aware but to make the Governments aware that this is not going away, its not something they can sweep under the carpet. "

Mr Thompson says the alliance will target Federal and State politicians.

"This is rising from individual communities desperately fighting their causes and trying to get the politicians to pay attention," he said.

"All these communities will continue to fight their individual causes but we will roll that up into a National movement where all these communities are coming together and saying that this isn't an issue for one or two or three communities, this is a National issue. "
