6. Benzene is really bad news in drinking water.

I doubt anyone drinks from Parachute Creek, but still...

Would anyone venture to translate this quote from the article?

A plant for fracked natural gas processor Williams Energy, near Parachute, Colo., spilled an estimated 241 barrels of mixed natural gas liquid into the ground, some of which eventually washed as benzene into Parachute Creek.


I'm unfamiliar with that phrasing and find it bizarre.
