The Environment and Land Court in Malindi has reinstated the environmental permit for Lake Gas's bulk cooking gas handling facility in Vipingo, Kilifi County. This decision overturns a previous ruling by the National Environmental Tribunal (NET) that had canceled the permit.

• The court validated Lake Gas's environmental licence for its facility under construction.
• National Environmental Tribunal (NET) had previously canceled the licence due to inadequate public consultation.
• The project is a bulk Liquefied Petroleum Gas handling facility.
