New Owners for Eureka’s 3 PA Wastewater Plants; Waste Still On Site
The long, sad saga of Eureka Resources has a new chapter — and for once, it's not another fine or another leak. Eureka has sold the business operations at all three of its shuttered Pennsylvania frack wastewater treatment plants. Two of the three went to Select Water Solutions, one of the biggest water-management companies in the oilfield. The third went to a Washington County trucking outfit. We didn't hear this from Eureka. We heard it from the Middle Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association, which pried the details out of the PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in advance of the one-year anniversary of the Aug. 17, 2025 spill that dumped 16,000 gallons of untreated wastewater into the West Branch of the Susquehanna River (see 'Black Goop' Spills into Susquehanna River from Closed Eureka Plant).To view this content, log into your member account.
