Another environmental problem that is very prevalent in water well drilling is the potential for methane to seep through.

Famous quotes containing the word problems:
“Currently, U.S. society has been encouraged by its political and subsidized mass-media intelligentsia to view U.S. life as a continual “morning in America” paradise, where the only social problems occur in the inner cities. Psychologists call this denial.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
