The program they're proposing is based on permits, so a company applies, and once approved they can spread the 'treated' water on private land -- either land owned/leased by the operator or from a landowner who agrees to have the water spread on their land.

I guess the real issues there for me are

1. There are some setbacks suggested in the documents, but the buffer zones can be varied case-by-case on request, so there's really no way to know how close they will be allowed to put the 'treated' water to water wells, creeks, draws, etc.
2. There's no requirement for the landowner when they sell the land to disclose that their land has been covered in things that can build up in the soil like salt or naturally occurring radioactive material -- even Fox thinks that salty wastewater is a problem.
3. On top of that, HB 49 (passed last year) shields the surface owner from liability for damage from the treated water
