I would need to see results in other geo areas that have similar/same soil and elevation as Harris County

justanirishgirl : The video says upwards to 120 feet underground. 133 Miles of tunnel.

justanirishgirl : I tend to agree! Even though we are not below sea level, we are barely above it. Just my opinion, but that seems like it would be problematic.
