    During rig moves and some other activities it is common to water the roads, with fresh water, to cut down on dust. Don't know any details on this, but it does look like he is using a spreader bar.

    Yeah, well you must work for EOG and as Sinclair Upton said, "It's hard to get a man to understand something when his paycheck depends on it."

    I've seen a lot of people like you change their tune when it's their turn to serve their children a glass of contaminated water. In fact, I even know one who works/worked for EOG. He decided water was more important then money.

    Interesting that you seem to be supporting illegal dumping. Nice ethics there.

    If this was produced saltwater, then it would leave a tell tale sign of salt residue.

    Like the one poster stated this is obvious dust control.

    I worked for this company and know that the drivers are paid to deliver produced water and get paid by the hour, not ticket time.

    It would be easy to check out because every load whether fresh, heavy brine, or produced water is justified at origin and at delivery.

    Even fresh water is to be signed by oil company company man to justify payment for trick, company, and employee pay.

      I’ve had quite a few drivers of produced water trucks admit that their supervisors ordered them to spray down public roads with their loads. They have also told me there were ordered to dump their loads in ponds/ditches/pastures or told to leave the valve open and let it leak on the road as they drive. I have witnessed all of the above.

      Yes, it leaves a residue and nothing but dead vegetation.
