Look for springs when commenting on well site locations!

If the well site is constructed over a spring, the water coming out of the spring will destabilize the site. So if the driller wants to put a well site somewhere that you do not want it, look carefully for any springs that might be there. Then if the driller will not do what you want, be sure to comment about the location of the spring when you comment on the permit. Springs can be hard to see, so look carefully.
