DeepWater Desal
An Oceanographic Solution to Produce Fresh Water
Together, we can find a sensible solution to desalination that protects the marine environment we all share and provides the replacement water we need to replenish our groundwater basin.
- » Close to shore, nature has provided us with globally unique resource – Monterey Canyon, one of the deepest and most studied bodies of water in the world.«
- » By drawing water from the deep, we can provide a sustainable supply of clean, safe replacement water with minimal effect on marine biological resources.«
- » We face a severe shortfall in replacement
water for our aquifers. Local water districts depend entirely on rainfall for our water supply, and we are prone to droughts.« - » Sharing existing facilities at Moss Landing, DWD is in an ideal location, and features the optimal structure for regional distribution, intake and outfall.«
- » DWD will provide the highest quality fresh replacement water with the least amount of risk, lowest environmental impact, at the lowest cost, within the shortest timeline. «
