The West Australian: Anger at oil survey near Ningaloo

Conservation groups are up in arms over BHP Billiton plans to explore for oil just 5km from the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef.
Under a proposal being reviewed by the Department of Environment and Conservation, the resources giant would start a seismic survey of a 250km area in February. The area is 15km from North West Cape and 5km from the Ningaloo World Heritage area boundary.
