Executive Officer, Natural Resource Committee GPO Box 572, Adelaide SA 5001 Email patrickdupont@parliamentsa.gov.au To Natural Resources Committee, Re; Inquiry into Unconventional Gas and Fracking in SE of SA We understand that the Limestone Coast Protection Alliance Inc is writing a submission for this inquiry and that they do not support unconventional gas and fracking in the SE of SA for the following reasons; • potential for water contamination caused by spills, leaks, chemicals and accidents • potential for well integrity failure due to finite lifespan of cement and steel • potential for air pollution detrimental to health of natural environment, humans and animals • potential for industrialisation of landscape and loss of "clean and green" image • unsustainable competition with existing industries such as agriculture, horticulture, viticulture and tourism which will have a detrimental impact on local economy • unsustainable competition for finite water resources
