AGL Energy Limited (ASX:AGL) says the latest water monitoring results show no detected levels of an anti-bacterial agent in groundwater around the Waukivory Pilot Project near Gloucester.
The energy provider has tested groundwater and surface water samples for THPS from eight locations around the site before, during and after hydraulic fracturing operations.
THPS is known commercially as Tolcide and AGL says all groundwater samples tested less than the laboratory test limit of detection.
AGL has acknowledged the community’s concern for the safety of local water resources and affirmed its monitoring and testing regime is of the highest standard.
AGL Energy reported a net profit of $570 million in the 2014 financial year.
