Remediation of high chloride hot spots within the Equus Beds would help generate an additional water supply source as well as protect and prolong the useable lifespan of groundwater wells within the formation. Over time, these hot spots migrate and mix with adjacent freshwater, making the chloride more difficult to remove.
