For the information of the witnesses I am involved in a group water scheme. Generally, the location of a good spring well is fairly close to a bog or in soft ground. That is just for the information of the witnesses with regard to rural Ireland. It is actually the geological survey that will state where the water is coming from. It could be from a hill back the way. It does not always state it is coming from where the bog is, just so that people will not have the daylights frightened out of them. We got Geological Survey Ireland work done. Our water comes from a hill and we have a buffer zone. There is absolutely no problem with our THMs. We need to clarify this and have it right.
