There is capacity for “dozens and dozens and dozens of wells.” |

from tracadie cross dump in 1998 till today, what I see is a corrupt and inefficient government not looking after the people interest. no vertical fractures, no confined aquifers, no ocean. we should be seriously looking at what has been going on inside the government. what I would like to see is any hydrological/hydrogeological work, as an environmental impact accessment, for deep water wells. I learned today that the national park has a 500 foot well, with 8 inch casing near the campground in Stanhope. this partially explains to me why the ocean has been dying in that whole general area. and why is Campbell’s pond across from dalvay house green in the summer?
