The Government is consulting on the possible inclusion of shale gas production projects as part of the NSIP regime here.
They are particularly interested to hear from:
- onshore oil and gas operators with an interest in developing shale gas production sites
- anyone conducting research or providing advisory services relating to the exploration and development of shale gas resources
- industry bodies, groups or individuals with an interest in the production of onshore shale gas
- regulators dealing with the use, management and protection of onshore shale gas resources
- planning authorities responsible for plan-making and decision taking in relation to planning applications for shale gas projects
Hare at Wilson Fearnall we are also seeking wider views in order that we can formulate a response ahead of the 25th October deadline. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss or drop us a line.
