AGL Quits Gloucester
For 7 years the Gloucester community has campaigned against the AGL gas field. This was a project that wasn’t safe, wasn’t needed and wouldn’t make a profit. On Thursday 4 February 2016 AGL announced that it would not proceed with the project and would relinquish their exploration licence. This very likely spells the end of CSG at Gloucester.

Thank you to all our members, allies and supporters for your hard work, your donations and moral support.
We will continue to work to hold responsible all those who have improperly promoted the CSG industry, to support campaigns at other gas fields and to have appropriate remediation at Gloucester. We will continue to work for a sustainable future for our valley.
