Topic Desalination
Agenda Item Number unknown
Describe Feedback: We would like to express our concern for our Bay
and our way of life that may be adversely affected
by proposed Desalination plants. The adverse
affects would be by higher water costs and
damage to our fishing and tourism industry.
In Carlsbad, California,their water rates tripled
after they built a Desal plant there. In regards to
the Bay,we think that a pipeline which would
empty out into the Gulf, rather than the Bay may
not be as damaging to the Aquatic life.
We have not heard of any study results and feel
there is a need for more information and
transparency for our citizens!
