Federal grants include $5.3 million for Oceanside groundwater purification project
Water after it has gone through the desalination process leaves the Claude “Bud” Lewis Carlsbad Desalination Plant, in Carlsbad, on Tuesday, March 29, 2022. The plant, which opened in 2015, produces up to 50 million gallons of water a day which is delivered to San Diego County. It is the largest seawater desalination plant in the country. Carlsbad’s desalination plant, which provides 10 percent of San Diego County’s drinking water, will get $19.
The improvements are intended to better protect wildlife, the environment and the plant by rerouting trash from the water stream to a sorting area where it can be removed. The new intakes also have bars to prevent marine mammals from getting close to the screens and a floating boom to stop floating debris.
Also in the grants announced by the Department of the Interior is $5.3 million to increase the capacity of Oceanside’s Mission Basin groundwater purification facility, which filters brackish water drawn from wells in the basin.
