A common concern with most Chevy fans is that whenever a new Camaro is released they're worried that it's been turned into some new fangled car that doesn't bring back the nostalgia of youth.

Yet, out of 30,000 wastewater disposal wells only a small fraction appear to be problematic (Ellsworth 2013). This could be due to the amount of water (volume) injected into the wells at the time or whether the pressure is directly communicated into basement faults (Ellsworth 2013). Injection induced earthquakes are clearly a reason for concern as they present a seismic hazard. Industrial activity has for a long period of time been a known cause for earthquakes, impoundment of reservoirs,…
