$1.4 Billion Huntington Beach Desalination Plant Approved
The Santa Ana Regional Water Board has approved a $1.4 billion desalination plant in Huntington Beach.
The board voted 4–3 during an April 29 meeting to issue a wastewater discharge permit to Poseidon Resources LLC, which is planning to construct and operate the desalination facility.
Board members Daniel Selmi, Tom Rivera, William Ruh, and Lana Peterson voted in favor of the item. Kris Murray, Joe Kerr and Letitia Clark voted against it.
The permit allows Poseidon to operate the facility before all other permits are granted a process that would otherwise take upward of a decade to complete.
