A group of traditional owners, doctors, scientists and investors have called on energy Infrastructure company APA to end it's plan to build a pipeline in the Beetaloo basin in the Northern Territory.

APA plans to build the pipeline, which would connect pilot gas fracking projects in the Basin to Darwin and the east coast. 

WHAT: Nurrdalinji Aboriginal Corporation, which represents native title holders from the NT’s Beetaloo Basin who wish to protect country, comments on new Territory laws proposed by the CLP, designed to side-step environmental and other laws which apply to fracking (“Major projects could be exempted from NT laws, and Minister ‘step in’ powers under future Territory Controller” NT News today).

The NT Government has signed a deal with US gas company Empire Energy to buy fracked gas from the Beetaloo Basin from a proposed expanded drilling project which is yet to receive Ministerial approval.
