6. that we might want to consider what will happen to that pipeline

during an earthquake of this power or higher.

My water for drinking and the irrigation on my crops (farm ground) comes from Ogallala aquifer. The part of the country using that aquifer for crop water produces a large amount of produce. Take away the ability to grow crops here and America will see drastic results.

2. Add an overlay of fracking wells/water disposal sites & you'll really be scared.

3. This is bad juju

I wonder what the tornado potential is for this pipeline?

Edited to add some additional thoughts.

4. The rings on the bull's-eye need to be expanded as I felt weak-light shaking 300 miles away

The quakes in this region transfer energy over greater distances than typical west coast quakes.

7. Is that orange line down the center of the earth quake the pipeline?
