BOOM!  If you live near the Brookwood Development, prepare to hear explosions “about once a day for a couple of months.”  Dynamite will be used in an effort to clear land to make room for 20 new homes.  Residents are worried about a gas line exploding due to shock waves from the dynamite, but I’m not a blaster, so I have no idea about the danger.

I wonder if the explosions comply with the noise ordinance… probably not!

    The Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals, and Energy [a href="http://www.dmme.virginia.gov/">website] oversees this sort of blasting. Unfortunately, Ethan took over the state government and dissolved this department. Enjoy your water.
