  • Submission from Stop CSG Sydney on the Santos Narrabri Project Environmental Impact Statement
    Submission from Stop CSG Sydney on the Santos Narrabri Project Environmental Impact Statement About Stop CSG Sydney Stop Coal Seam Gas Sydney was formed in 2011 by residents of the inner west suburbs of Sydney following their discovery that Dart Energy was about to explore for coal seam gas in St Peters, just 7kms from the CBD. The company had an exploration licence (PEL 463) covering not only the whole of metropolitan Sydney but as far as Gosford in the north and Sutherland in the south. The licence was cancelled by the Baird government in March 2015 following a strong community campaign against coal seam gas exploration and mining in the region. Stop CSG Sydney has continued to campaign against unconventional gas development in NSW and we strongly object to the Santos Narrabri Project. Grounds for our opposition to the Project The project would cause trauma to the traditional custodians of the Pilliga This proposal exposes the company’s misconception about the importance of the Pilliga to the Gomeroi/Gamilaraay people. We support the submissions of the traditional owners of the land that the Pilliga as a whole is central to preservation of their culture and connection to country. The company may pretend the situation is one where “heritage” sites and artefacts need to be “avoided” by their operations. Protecting Aboriginal sacred sites and the forest as a whole from mining and invasive infrastructure is critical to the Gamilaraay people and to their future. Industrialisation of the Pilliga would be totally contrary to the rights, cultural responsibilities and needs of the Gamilaraay people.
