“随着比特鲁谷的人口不断增长,毫无疑问,对生活用水的需求也大大提高。当地水论坛的协调人洛克沙·法兰建议大家,在建新房子时将水井挖得深一些,因为“插在奶昔里的吸管越来越多”。也就是说,位于同一含水层的水井越多,水位会因此下降。蒙大拿当地的法律和法规对生活用水的规制较少,一户人家新凿的水井可能会影响邻居家现有水井的水位,但后者很难获得赔偿。欲计算一个含水层所能提供的生活用水的数量,必须先勘探该含水层的范围,并测出其流量。然而,令人吃惊的是,比特鲁谷人略过了这两项最基本的步骤。拉法利郡没有监测含水层的资源,在审查建筑开发商的设计方案时,也没有对供水进行独立评估。反之,拉法利郡只是听信于开发商的一面之词,后者信誓旦旦地保证新建的房屋有足够的井水可供使用。”
