🚨 BREAKING: Incident report reveals water contamination at Empire Energy exploratory fracking operation in Beetaloo Basin
📌 Details here: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01-15/nt-beetaloo-basin-incident-experts-concerned/104816526
Beetaloo Basin Traditional Owners say this is yet another example of fracking companies like Empire breaking the rules and causing damage to water and Country.
This is just one well - but fracking companies are likely to drill thousands of fracking wells across the NT if they are allowed to proceed. This spill shows the risk a full blown production-scale fracking industry poses to water and Country in the NT.
Just another reason why Minister Tanya Plibersek must URGENTLY apply the water trigger to fracking projects in the NT to protect precious water.
