EPA submission deadline closes for greenhouse gas plan

The Western Australian Chamber of Minerals and Energy (CME) has called on the state’s Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) to carefully consider the submissions made on its greenhouse gas emissions assessment guidance.

CME CEO Paul Everingham said despite attempts by some campaigners to flood the EPA with 6 655 pro forma submissions, it was encouraging that 293 private citizens, organisations, companies, industry bodies and academic and community groups had made the effort to provide individual submissions.
