Coal seam gas projects face delay MATHEW MURPHY July 14, 2010 http://www.smh.com.au/business/coal-seam-gas-projects-face-delay-20100713-109fy.html
ALMOST $30 billion worth of planned coal seam gas projects in Queensland have hit a snag, with the federal government asking Santos and BG to revise and resubmit their environmental impact statements.
The Environment Protection Minister, Peter Garrett, has written to both companies asking for extra information on water management strategies amid concerns by Queensland's Coordinator-General and local communities about the effect on the Great Artesian Basin, one of the only reliable sources of fresh water in inland Australia.
Mr Garrett has given Santos and BG until October 11 to submit a revised environmental impact statement, potentially pushing back a final investment decision that both companies had said would be made by the end of the year.
