Focus on identifying the risks and regulatory barriers to reusing municipal treated effluent for well completions in MSHF. However, consideration will also be given to defining the following sources:

  • Treated municipal or domestic wastewater
  • treated industrial or oilfield wastewater
  • Hydraulic fracturing flowback or produced water
  • Non-saline groundwater that is demonstrated to be economically and technologically impractical to use for drinking water or livestock watering pruposes
  • Impacted non-saline groundwater
  • Saline groundwater
  • Untreated industrial wastewater
