State Task Force Examines Desalination
The state’s Desalination Task Force is meeting this week to look at what technology can and can’t do for California’s water-starved communities.
The 26 members of the task force met Monday and will meet again Wednesday to discuss energy and economic issues involved in turning sea water into drinking water.
They also planned to tour the site of the proposed Marin Municipal Water District desalination plant.
The task force was assembled by legislative order last fall to study desalination. It must submit a report to the Legislature by July 2004.
