Nottinghamshire's Minerals Plan is being revised. Amongst other things, views are being sought on 'key constraints' which should be applied to drilling for methane from coal seams ('coal bed methane'). And are there any reasons not to be positive about shale gas fracking? Comments are required by 30 March 2012 - details at www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/minerals.

For background see our campaign page on fracking.
