Thinking about the environment around you:

• What type of soil surrounds where you live, work, or do recreation?
• How fast or slow does water run through this soil?
• How deep is the soil around you?
• Is there any evidence of rock around you?
• If effluent was discharged on the soil, how well would it be dispersed?
