-- An insurance company wants to assess the insurance coverage for the town's
-- hospital, nursing homes, and schools. Part of this process includes
-- determining the threat the hazardous waste sites pose to each institution.
-- At this time the insurance company wants to consider only those
-- institutions that are not at risk of contamination.  The GIS consultant
-- hired by the insurance company has been commissioned to locate all
-- institutions that are outside a five-mile radius of a hazardous waste
-- storage facility. The sensitive_areas table contains several columns that
-- describe the threatened institutions in addition to the zone column,
-- which stores the institutions' polygon geometries.

-- and name columns, while the actual geographic location of each site is
-- stored in the location point column.
