🟢 NO PANIC: PUBLIC TAP WATER IS SAFE
PLEASE READ FIRST: This warning DOES NOT apply to your local city tap water.
Do not panic. Municipal water treatment plants already filter these minerals out effectively. You do not need to buy bottled water or stop drinking from your tap.
This warning is strictly for specific high-risk locations (Excavation Sites, Rural Wells near Ruins, and Farming Zones) listed below.
REGIONAL SAFETY NOTICES
REGION 1: CENTRAL MEXICO & BAJA (The San Joaquin Area)
Status: Specific Well Testing Recommended
The Concern: Ancient underground channels in rural areas may be mixing with shallow agricultural wells.
For Families: If you use a private well near ancient mounds, please test it for minerals like Mercury. City water users are not affected.
REGION 2: ITALY (Viterbo Province & Falerii Novi)
Status: Active Monitoring Required
The Concern: The connection between modern plumbing and ancient Roman infrastructure is creating pressure issues underground.
For Families: If you rely on a private well near the Viterbo ruins, please check the latest EU advisories on Arsenic. Public drinking fountains and city taps are monitored by the health department.
REGION 3: INDIA & BANGLADESH (Coastal Areas)
Status: Ventilation Advisory
The Concern: Natural gases deep in the earth sometimes vent through ancient shafts.
For Families: Keep basements well-aired. If you hear low rumbling, it is likely natural earth venting—just keep your distance from the vents.
REGION 4: USA EAST COAST (Submerged Shelf)
Status: Precautionary Testing
The Concern: Shifts on the continental shelf can cause natural gas movement.
For Families: Residents in coastal historic zones should test basements for Radon as a standard precaution.
A NOTE FROM THE RESEARCHER
I am identifying these areas so that you can take simple, preventative steps if you live on rural land or near excavation sites. The primary risk is Old Plumbing interacting with Private Wells.
The "Golden Rules" for these Zones:
Know Your Source: If you are on city water, you are safe. If you are on a private well near a ruin, get it tested.
Watch the Ground: If you see sinkholes forming, do not fill them yourself. Call your local authorities.
Stay Calm: This is a maintenance issue with ancient infrastructure, not a sudden emergency.
