Wastewater spill, it all runs downhill...

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."
