AGL gas breach blasted

THE Scenic Hills Association has condemned AGL for failing to continuously monitor air emissions at the Camden Gas Project.
 
In a statement, AGL said an internal review found it had for about three years been in breach of a requirement to perform continuous air emissions monitoring.
 
The Scenic Hills Association said in a statement it was "deeply concerned" by this breach.
 
The statement said: "We do not know who knew what in AGL or elsewhere, but it is a massive failure of a system that allows coal seam gas companies to self-monitor and self-report.
 
"Despite a massive failure of the system to monitor this industry, AGL is now being allowed to engage its own consultants to self-investigate and self-report.
 
"We are not convinced by assurances from AGL's consultants that cars are a far greater polluter in the Campbelltown area than industry."
