SYDNEY, May 28 (Reuters) - The Australian government approved on Wednesday Woodside Energy's WDS.AX request to extend the life of its North West Shelf gas plant, after a six-year review process dogged by delays, appeals and backlash from green groups.
Environment Minister Murray Watt said in a statement the decision to approve the extension of the project would be subject to strict conditions "particularly relating to the impact of air emissions levels from the operation".
