stakeholders and homeowners due the airspace, landscapes and habitats could
potentially affected by renewable energy projects. Stakeholders vested interest in a
proximity to residential areas and

locating the well at this location are because of the material underneath it. The water is
surrounded by non-permeable material to prevent contaminations. For landfills we
located number twelve because it is not close from residential area and environmentally
sensitive area. Overall, stakeholders considered by many factors where an area is safe
or if it is not and what are some of the concern and results that could affect the
environment and the homeowners.
