Again, the “depicted” dotted line fails to indicate erosion and a truncated Fruitland Shale Formation to the east.
The remaining production target, the Dakota Sandstone, is directly below the surface Mancos Shale and directly above the drinking-water-bearing Morrison Formation.
Fracking into the Dakota above drinking water with toxic, carcinogenic, and radioactive fluids is EPA-banned (IV).
Once contaminated with high, 80 acre drilling densities already using neutron-logging, the need for drinking water exploration for uncontaminated supplies will increase with even more neutron well-logging, for H2O.
