On 11 May 2011, BeneTerra’s Managing Director spoke to the Queensland branch of the Australian Soil Science Society about the company’s experiences with coal seam gas water in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming. He described why and how the company adapted subsurface drip irrigation for dispersal of CSG water in a frigid climate. Results from studies undertaken by the US Geological Survey were shared with the group. An hour-long question and answer session followed the talk resulting in a dialogue on the impacts of CSG.
