No authusgs-produced-water

USGS National Produced Waters Geochemical Database (v3) — formation TDS + per-sample lithium-brine chemistry. No auth. DATA: - searchFormations (~1,687 formations — TDS min/max/median + counts; live layer). - searchLithiumBrines (~6.4K samples with measured lithium Li mg/L; bundled v3.0 snapshot). RULES: 1. searchFormations: filter formation (FORMSIMPLE) and/or minMedianTds / maxMedianTds (mg/L). SWD/injection siting + water-reuse. 2. searchLithiumBrines: filter state / formation / basin / county / minLi. Returns samples + Li percentile stats — benchmark a play (e.g. Smackover) vs others. 3. Lithium subset is a static snapshot (v3.0, DOI 10.5066/P9DSRCZJ); formation TDS is live aggregate.
