Oil and gas companies are seeking legal shelter as Texas comes closer to using waste brine once considered too toxic for anything other than fracking to replenish Texas’ water shortages.
Legislation filed by state Rep. Drew Darby, R-San Angelo, could give them, transportation companies and landowners such protection.
Thought one of the points of Fracking was using this stuff to do the Fracking. If its not safe or useful for shoving back into the ground to force more fossil fuels out, then why the hell would we put it in the water supply!?
