I will not dispute that mining operations have damaged some water wells in the past. However, many (most, IMO) claims made against coal companies for well damages are bogus and are made by people who never had good wells and are looking for somebody to buy them an expensive treatment system or drill them a deeper well.

I'm not disputing the bogus assumptions about coal ruining private wells. I', disputing the fact they they say are water is clean to drink.
