DEA notes a number of deficiencies, unsupported assumptions, known and unknown risks in relation to the Santos Narrabri Gasfield project. We recommend rejection of this proposal on the basis that it cannot sufficiently guarantee the safety of human health and ecosystems supporting health.

Concerns relating to this proposed development include the use of chemicals, impacts on water quantity, impacts to the quality of ground and surface water, impacts to soil and implications for crops and livestock as food sources, air pollution, climate risks, road safety and adequacy of monitoring and safeguards.
