Newcastle rally shows support for traditional owners in fight to stop Santos' Narrabri gas project
ABCA Gomeroi traditional owner has told a rally in Newcastle she expects a "David-and-Goliath" battle to stop Santos' multi-billion-dollar gas project. This weekend a convoy travelled from Narrabri, via the Upper Hunter to a rally in Newcastle on Sunday, opposing Santos' $3.6 billion gas developments in the Pilliga in northern New South Wales. "Santos will continue to engage constructively with the Gomeroi people and work closely with them to ensure their heritage is protected and they benefit from the project development," it said. Nanna Carol, who did not disclose her last name, from the Knitting Nannas in the Hunter Valley, where an approved gas pipeline from Santos' Narrabri project will travel through, said she supported the traditional owners in their fight against the gas development.
