Protecting the Environment and Our Natural Resources
Protecting the environment and natural resources comes first when we prepare a site for a new well.

Using existing roads and trails whenever possible, and placing numerous culverts to avoid interruption of surface water flow, we create a single-lane limestone road to access a 3 to 5-acre site for the well.

A limestone pad is then constructed with a berm surrounding it to prevent rain water run-off into adjacent environments. We also cover the pad with a thick impermeable liner to protect ground water, which we sample frequently for quality control.

A drilling rig is then carefully assembled on the pad along with a closed loop, containerized water and mud system that ensures a clean operation.
