GRAND JUNCTION \u2014 Cleanup efforts are underway following two recent leaks from oil and gas facilities in western Colorado.<\/p>\n

The Daily Sentinel reports a buried natural gas gathering line owned by Bargath, a subsidiary of the energy company Williams, ruptured last week north of Parachute.<\/p>\n

Williams says its surface water monitoring results indicate it has stopped contaminants from continuing to reach Parachute Creek.<\/p>\n

Reports from the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission indicate an unknown amount of produced water containing benzene and other contaminants leaked from a Caerus Oil and Gas pipeline facility earlier this month.<\/p>\n

According to the reports, the leak occurred in area along the Colorado River southwest of Parachute.<\/p>\n

The commission says it has environmental staff on the ground overseeing cleanup efforts and response.<\/p>\n
