Some Geology at Darlington Hearings

Article

The current plan doesn’t address the fact that the site is next door to a gravel quarry. Blasting shakes the ground, and quarrying can lower the water table underground, causing land in the surrounding area to become unstable and sink.

Oh, I could die laughing!  At least they brought up the blasting part.  But having the solid limestone sink?  They must think it's Bruce limestone!   :)
