Difficult situation for those home owners… cracks show up after the ground has sunk under their homes… they (officials)need to know but it's a little late once the cracks appear. It's not like they are going to fix or stop them, but they might expand their area of concern.

If the brine caverns fail, the ground could open up and swallow lots of people
Report Comment

Have they opened any evac centers?
Aloha.
