Quarter 2 | 2016

Shale and Tight GasThe Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) is responsible for ensuring the State’s resources sector is developed and managed responsibly and sustainably for the benefit of all Western Australians. As the State’s regulator for extractive industries and dangerous goods, DMP works with other government agencies to ensure workers, the community and the environment are protected.

Effective stakeholder engagement enables better planned and more informed policies, programs, projects and services to be delivered by DMP. The department has adopted a policy of ‘engage early and often’ in all areas of its business requiring consultation as part of its commitment to making sure that its operations are open and transparent to the public.

Continuing community engagement addresses concerns about potential risks associated with resource extraction. As with any industry, the community wants assurance that there are appropriate regulations and processes in place to protect WA’s communities and environment.

This Activities Report summaries DMP’s engagement activities concerning Shale and Tight gas exploration in Western Australia undertaken to date. DMP has an ongoing commitment to stakeholder engagement regarding this emerging new energy sector. Reporting of stakeholder engagement activities will be reported on DMP’s website on a regular basis.
