That amount of hydrochloric acid doesn't just magically dilute evenly into the water table in one instant.
For reference 1 inch of rain over 1 sq. mile is approximately 18 million gallons.
So even if we concentrated the full 250k gallons (remember that HCl is just one byproduct too, so we are being very generous with 250k gallons, most of the byproducts are carbon monoxide/dioxide), but 250k gallons into 1 sq mile of rain fall....138ppm
In reality this will fall over thousands of square miles too.
