NEW DELHI: The Australian government has granted clearance for Adani Group’s controversial groundwater management plan for its coal mine project at Queensland in that country.
“CSIRO and Geoscience Australia have independently assessed the groundwater management plan for the Carmichael Coal Mine and Rail Infrastructure project. Both CSIRO and Geoscience Australia have confirmed the revised plan meets strict scientific requirements,” Australia’s environmental minister Melissa Price said in a statement on Tuesday.
