Santos has been given the green light to proceed with its major coal seam gas project in Narrabri, despite traditional owners' concerns about the impacts of climate change and the preservation of indigenous culture.
The National Native Title Tribunal on Monday ruled proposed mining leases should be granted for the Narrabri gas project, in northern NSW, which would include 850 new gas wells across about 92,000 ha, including in the Pilliga state forest.
