[quote:Anonymous Coward 30857551:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzM2Mzg3MzU1XzZCNDc5MEQz] Hi Southern' the fracking issue is everywhere. They are doing it here in Sydney, and I'm part of a small anti-fracking group that pickets anything near the Lane Cove National Park. It's amazing how a council can give these opportunists a lease to explore only 100m from official national park sanctuary. We have a lovely region near by called the Hunter Valley, and it is a large fruit, veg and farming region, especially known for grapes and wine. Also known for coal mines. They did the sums, and realised shale gas would be infinately cheaper to mine. If we see it, why the heck cant other folks? Crazy. There has been a bit of a legal stir here, as the industry watchdog has been caught out with their pants down. They are not allowed to grant a lease if the emmissions are past a certain part per million. Some clever chaps basically strapped their laboratory to their 4WD, and went on a tour. What did they find? Levels thousands of times higher than legal. Why was it allowed? In the fine print was a section known as "unknown and unforseen gas emmissions beyond control" or something to that nature. They were hiding part of the reading in that area... bastards. These 'mines' are usually remotely monitored, and rarely visited. No wonder they do this over a coal mine employing hundreds, paying wages, insurance etc. [/quote]
