Messenger: Davyhulme methane extraction plan 'is not fracking'

ANGRY Urmston residents are opposing Trafford Council’s plans to consider a coal bed methane extraction site underneath the proposed Barton Renewable Energy Plant site in Davyhulme.

The Breathe Clean Air Group (BCAG) is campaigning for a cleaner atmosphere in Urmston and the surrounding area and is vehemently against both the proposed coal bed methane extraction and energy plant.

Planning permission for the extraction could be regranted by Trafford Council’s Planning Committee after plans were put on hold having initially been approved in September 2010. MORE
