BREAKING: Contractors for the fracking corporation Tamboran have come forward to the ABC alleging that the corporation improperly used toxic waste water from fracking.
According to the workers involved, toxic waste water from exploration drilling by the fracking corporation was used for spraying across surrounding country, exposing the workers, local ecosystem, and anyone in the surrounding area to dangerous chemicals.
This is yet more proof that Tamboran cannot be trusted to run a safe operation in the Beetaloo Basin. Traditional Owners have been calling out Tamboran, as well as the territory and federal government, saying that they don’t want fracking on their land for precisely this reason.
Tamboran and the territory authorities have denied the allegations, but no information on testing has been released to the public.
Minister Plibersek has already committed to protecting water by implementing the water trigger as part of environmental protection laws next year, but harm is being done right now.
