Narrabri Lateral Pipeline - will you stand with Shaine and Jack?

Will you stand with Baan Baa based farmers Shaine and Jack Maunder? They are appealing to NSW Minister for Energy, Penny Sharpe not to allow Santos to force their way onto their property to survey for a gas pipeline against their wishes.

They farm where Santos are seeking approval to build the Narrabri Lateral Pipeline. Like other landholders in the region, they reject the pipeline, which would carve a 30-metre-wide corridor for 50-60 kilometres through ecologically significant habitat in the renowned Pilliga forest and some of the state’s best farmland.

Santos wants this pipeline to connect their risky and invasive gasfield to the unbuilt and heavily opposed Hunter Gas Pipeline east of Baan Baa.

Dear Minister Sharpe,

I am writing to stand with farmers like the Maunders who have spoken out against a high pressure gas pipeline on their property in north-west NSW.

I’m writing to support them in asking you to refuse to grant an Authority to Survey for the Narrabri Lateral Pipeline.

If you grant the Authority to Survey, you’ll be giving Santos the green light to force their way onto properties along the proposed Narrabri Lateral Pipeline to survey for a gas pipeline against a number of landholders wishes.

I oppose the pipeline because it would carve a 30-metre-wide corridor for 50-60 kilometres through ecologically significant habitat in the renowned Pilliga forest and through some of the state’s best farmland.

Importantly, we need to shift away from gas as soon as possible, not build brand new gas infrastructure that is risky and dangerous to those forced to host it.

I know that Santos wants this pipeline in order to connect their risky and invasive gasfield to the unbuilt and heavily opposed Hunter Gas Pipeline east of Baan Baa.

But this is not an investment that should be encouraged. We should not be adding the cost of unnecessary infrastructure to gas bills or expanding gas at this point in history. We should be supporting our farmers.

Please say no to an ‘Authority to Survey’.
