Three case studies are presented, including: Beaman Pond Brook, Massachusetts, a.k.a., when the farmer blames the residentialhomes, and the homeowners blame the horses; West Boylston Brook, Massachusetts, a.k.a., when a compact New England landscapeprovides too many potential sources to count; and, Door County, Wisconsin, a.k.a., when aquifer morphology works againstyou.
