Fischell's Brook...
...gets first mention of 4 underground storage sites on page 48...interesting

"For underground options, geological formations such as saline aquifers and salt caverns can serve as permanent CO2 storage options and potentially for storing hydrogen at large scale. A geological study to understand sequestration capabilities in the area is required to understand underground storage capabilities. There are several salt caverns within the vicinity of the Project site, including Fischells Brook, St Teresa – Flat Bay, Barachois Brook, and Harry’s River, which could be used as storage facilities for the hydrogen. The Project is currently investigating the suitability and overall proposition for this as it would significantly increase flexibility of the plant."
