What would you consider shallow? I think all of our frac wells were listed between 850 and 900, but actually I'm not sure if the fracfocus reports are in feet or meters. Our water wells are less than 135 feet deep, so I figured it wouldn't be an issue regardless of whether that's feet or meters.

But yeah, agreed on the frac fluid, I think the methanol content was .05%, so it would take an absolutely massive spill to produce any sort of contamination that one would need to worry about.
