Clean wells left to chance
But it was a tough budget year, and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources said no. Gov. Mike Easley never saw the request; nor did legislators, who make the final decision. The agency has not tried again.Thirty-five counties have some sort of construction oversight or well-testing program, but only 14 require even minimal tests. In the other 65 counties, well drillers are on the honor system when it comes to construction standards."That's like putting up speed limits but not setting anything up to regulate drivers," said B.K.

"A drummer couldn't make it one day, and I ended up playing with some musicians that I knew (in the studio)," he said.

Prior to this afternoon's matches, Hearts were 11 points behind third-placed Dundee United and five behind Falkirk in sixth.And, while Frail admitted that the InterToto Cup is an option the Jambos are exploring, he assured supporters that he and the players would still be striving to reel in United."It's a possibility," said Frail when asked whether the club would be applying for the competition before the April 8 deadline."There is a good standard of opposition in the competition so it's something that the club will look at."We would have to start training a couple of weeks earlier but football is now 12 months of the year and the plus would be that we would have competitive games."We would have to look at the early start but it can take you into the season and the start of it is probably not far away from when we started last year."It sounds strange to say that we've not given up hope of getting into Europe either but if we can put a wee run together then we can kick on."We're not making any grand statement .
