### sec.318AP Additional requirements for making application
The application must include—
a statement (a CSG statement ) assessing—
the likely effect of proposed coal mining on the future development of petroleum production from the land; and
the technical and commercial feasibility of coordinated petroleum production and coal or oil shale mining from the land; and
a proposed development plan that complies with the initial development plan requirements; and
For requirements for proposed initial development plans, see part 9 , division 2 .
other information that addresses the matters mentioned in subsection (2) (the CSG assessment criteria ), other than the matter mentioned in subsection (2) (c) (iii) .
The CSG assessment criteria are—
the initial development plan requirements; and
the legitimate business interests of the applicant and the authority to prospect holder (the parties ); and
contractual obligations
the effect on, and use of, existing infrastructure or mining or production facilities
exploration expenditure on relevant overlapping tenures
the effect of the proposed mining lease on the future development of petroleum resources in the land, including for example, each of the following—
the proposed timing and rate of coal or oil shale mining and the development of petroleum from the land;
the potential for the parties to make a coordination arrangement about—
coal or oil shale mining and any incidental coal seam gas mining under the proposed mining lease; and
petroleum production under any future petroleum lease over the land;
the attempts required of the applicant under section 318AT (1) (b) and any change of the type mentioned in section 318AT (1) (c) ;
the economic and technical viability of the concurrent or coordinated coal or oil shale mining and the development of any petroleum from the land;
the extent, nature and value of coal or oil shale mining and the development of any petroleum in the land; and
the public interest in coal or oil shale mining and petroleum production from the land, having regard to the public interest.
For subsection (2) , if the proposed mining lease is to be granted under section 234 (1) (b) for a purpose associated with, arising from or promoting the activity of mining, a reference to mining in the land includes a reference to mining in other land associated with the lease.
