| Subject: OZschwitz statist idiots: Court backs coalmining under biggest dam Fri Dec 18, 2009 9:58 pm | |
| AFTER a series of embarrassing losses in the Land and Environment Court, the NSW Planning Department has had a win - the court backed its approval of a massive expansion of coalmining under Sydney's water supply.
This week the Chief Judge, Brian Preston, rejected each of five grounds on which SOS Rivers, a coalition of 40 environment groups, sought to stop a subsidiary of the US company Peabody Mining from expanding its longwall mine under Woronora Dam, which supplies water to the Sutherland Shire.
SOS Rivers challenged the approval granted by the former planning minister and now Premier, Kristina Keneally, who in June allowed the mine expansion to proceed as a state significant project. Such provisions give the minister sweeping power to approve big projects.
