Polluted wastewater from a Quicksilver pipeline near Granbury. Quicksilver euphemistically called the 60 barrels of chemically contaminated well fracking fluid "salty produced water."
Excerpt from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram article...
"The Texas Railroad Commission said Wednesday that it continues to monitor the cleanup of polluted wastewater that spilled from a small pipeline serving a Quicksilver Resources natural gas production site five miles south of Granbury.
Quicksilver estimated that 60 barrels of salty "produced water," including less than a barrel of oil, leaked from the pipeline, which carries wastewater from wells to a saltwater injection well, where it is pumped underground. Produced water comes up through a wellbore along with natural gas."

Do you understand the difference between produced water and "fracking fluid", or are you just spewing nonsense in an attempt to rile the public?
Thanks Brian, oops, Anonymous...we needed a laugh.
