The Ground Water Protection Council (GWPC) is undertaking a new initiative focused on produced water management and beneficial use. The initiative, started during the summer of 2017, will generate a series of reports (or alternatively a series of chapters in a large report) addressing various aspects of produced water. The work is being done by a national study group organized by GWPC that includes representatives from state government, federal government, industry, and NGOs. Several consultants, including the presenter of this talk, are supporting the initiative.

The presentation describes the produced water initiative, the participants in the study group, and the organization of the report. Work on the initiative will be ongoing throughout the fall – the presentation will provide a report on the current status of the work.
