Premier Barry O'[Farrell] announced this evening that his government would be asking Cascade Coal to resubmit a development application for the Mt Penny Coal Project to the Department of Planning, and that corruption findings from ICAC would be assessed in a \"public interest test\" of the project. The move opens the door for the O'Farrell government to kill off the project. In addition to the Cascade Coal mining proposal at Mt Penny, ICAC is probing the Yarrawa Coal project by Loyal Coal (formerly Monaro Coal), the Doyles Creek project by NuCoal Resources, and the Glendon Brook project, also by Cascade Coal. Two of the projects, Yarrawa and Glendon Brook, are in advanced exploration stages, while the others - Mt Penny in the Bylong Valley and Doyles Creek at Jerrys Plains - have mine development plans awaiting State and Federal Government approval.
