Murphy, <br /> <br />Gray water (or grey water) is the saline water that must be disposed of before they can pump the methane out of the coalbed. There was (is) a big controversy over how to treat the water. I'll have to check, but there may be enough output to use in a slurry pipeline. If the slurry recycles the water back to the minehead, it can be used over and over. I guess eventually the black water would have to be treated. Mark in utah or miniwyo probably knows more about the amounts of grey water available from coalbed methane operations. <br /> <br />Too bad the energy bill didn't include an outlay for building more track out of the PRB. Let's see now, how would that work under the current closed access system......? Oh, right, it won't.
