Say No to Fracking Company Cuadrilla Returning to Balcombe in 2018

Posted on January 8, 2018 by Tessier Ashpool

Additional Information

For answers to some of the wider questions see:

  • What are companies after in the Weald?
  • What is tight (shale) oil?
  • What does tight oil extraction involve?
  • What are the impacts of this industry?
  • Where could this lead if not stopped?
  • How could this affect the Weald?

Cuadrilla have applied for permission to return to Lower Stumble Drill Site, London Road, Balcombe to flow test the well they drilled despite massive opposition in the Summer of 2013. They are seeking permission to try to extract oil from the horizontal well and install a 14m high flare to burn off the gases produced in the process. If permission is granted they will again create major impacts for the local community but also bring the threat of tight/shale oil extraction across large areas of the south east one step closer.

Join the Balcombe community outside West Sussex County Council’s Planning meeting at Chichester County Hall, Tuesday 9th January at 9.15am for 9.30 media call. Bring your placards and banners. Please invite your friends and share in your networks.
