Western Australia’s Supreme Court has thrown out a landowners application challenging Woodside’s right to carry out works at the site of its Browse LNG project.
Traditional owner Richard Hunter launched a legal battle in May, claiming the developer’s access to the land at James Price Point, near Broome, is invalid, according to ABC News.
Western Australia Planning Minister John Day had gone around a Broome Shire order shortly before the hearing was due in court to allow Woodside access to the site regardless of the outcome.
