Do they recycle this back into the aquifer by re-injection or dispose off site? If the former are drinking water sources (and/or potential sources) put a risk of contamination (especially now that the emphasis is on man created fracturing)? Thank you, High Sierra Guy Could you expand further upon what is done with the mercury, lead, cadmium etc generated waste?
