An independent review of Whitehaven Coal’s Werris Creek mine has found there’s no case to suggest it’s impacting on nearby underground bores.
Earlier this year, a study carried out on behalf of the Caroona Coal Action Group, claimed the mine had partially caused a loss of underground water.
However a follow up report, commissioned by the state government, has since rejected the findings and concluded drought conditions and groundwater extraction for irrigation is to blame.
