Fw: Coal Seam Gas hits the front pages of the Sydney Morning Herald this morning.

[Rosemary Nankivell]

Nothing like a threat to Sydney siders drinking water to make the front page.And of course what was left out of this article is that coal seam gas companies currently enjoy a "five year holiday" from paying royalties in NSW - so once production starts they do not pay royalties for five years!  Appalling!
