Please provide comments on how the release of the areas in this region may impact you
Activities such as seismic surveys, drilling, exploration, geotechnical surveys, construction of sub-sea infrastructure and decommissioning impact the commercial fishing industry. These activities also affect the marine environment and aquatic organisms, including commercially important finfish and invertebrate species and their food source.
The commercial fishing sector throughout Western Australia is the largest group of relevant stakeholders who are impacted from offshore oil and gas activities. In many instances, commercial fishers are the only potentially affected person.
Early engagement in the preliminary planning stages of any proposed oil and gas activity is essential to minimise impacts to both aquatic organisms, aquatic environment and the commercial fishing sector.
