Default Re: Hey Big!

He said he thinks the sinkhole is probably related to saltwater waste that is being stored underground in the area. The saltwater is a byproduct of oil production and has to be stored underground so it won't contaminate water supplies and the environment.

Oil drilling is not that close to the surface. If it was from removing the oil, that hole would be a heck of lot deeper than it is.

The reason above is more likely the cause and given the salt storage was attibutable to some driller, this guy just removed the ability of an insurance company yo deny the claim on the basis of mother nature. The lady may lose her house, but someone will be building her a new one in the near future. Lost your car ? Head to the car lot, now cuz you're due a replacement.
