The native title holders for an outback station in the Northern Territory will ask the Supreme Court to set aside a government decision to allow the use of groundwater for a planned 3500-hectare fruit and vegetable project.
The Mpwerempwer Aboriginal Corporation is seeking to overturn the decision by NT Families Minister Kate Worden to grant Fortune Agribusiness a 30-year groundwater extraction licence for Singleton Station, 380 north of Alice Springs, for up to 40 gigalitres per year.
