* The Osceola pump is supposedly hydrologically isolated from the surrounding wetlands.
* Geologically, it may be possible that the site they selected might not be isolated, and so high-intensity pumping could have a material impact on those wetlands.
* Nestle is loathe to acknowledge that geological claim and further, stipulating it, says that any impact it would actually have on those wetlands would be marginal.
* Residents claim significant impact to marshlands near their homes.
I concede based on this source that the specific siting of Nestle water pumps can have environmental impact (as I conceded up front that it can have an immediate impact on the residential water supply for well-fed houses).
I restate though my original claim, which is that Nestle stands no chance of draining the underlying aquifer from which it is pumping. It might just as plausibly set out to drain Lake Michigan. It's possible that Nestle will have to move its pumps at perhaps significant expense, to some other place in the same watershed.
