Could be wrong here, would need to reach out to former colleagues to be 100%. This may be your steak wheelhouse, in which please correct me!

But my recollection was the.. Class 5 (I think) injection wells used for the brine and such are not what was causing this issue. They were deep enough to stop sink holes but only down to the nonporous segment of rock layers causing basically a "well". The earthquakes are a fracking issue not leaving an escape or being back filled. And the sink holes (mostly) are attributable to salt mines not being filled.

Again this was nowhere near my expertise. I just did enforcement on a FEW class 5 wells. The wastewater was my expertise and these were a few sporadic things thrown in over almost a decade tenure.

I mean it does end up back in someone's tap in most cases. The Midwest especially. The Kansas River is a constant "downstream" complaint factory. Topeka for instance cleans the river water into drinking water. The wastewater plant then discharged water equal in water quality upstream of the drinking water plant back into the river. Said water then travels to Lawrence Kansas, who follows the same procedure.

Are we ever going to get an old time feeling, new Toe Jam and Earl?? The one on Xbox was okay, but the Sega versions were just amazing!
