The State of Seawater Desalination in Texas Texas i-Water 2010 Opportunities for seawater desalination Texas Seawater Desalination Initiative Regional water planning Resources

Opportunities for seawater desalination Texas i-Water 2010  Access to a plentiful source  367 miles of coast  Multiple sites for locating desalination plants  Proximity to [large] demand centers  ~ 2/3 of the state’s population located within 150 miles of the coast  Need for supply diversity  Vulnerability of existing sources  Cost-effective technology  New water

Texas Seawater Desalination Initiative Texas i-Water 2010  Goal: To advance the development of seawater desalination supplies in Texas by implementing a large-scale demonstration plant  To-date:  Feasibility studies: Brownsville, Corpus Christi and Freeport  Pilot plant studies: Brownsville and South Padre Island  Assessment of environmental issues and permitting strategies Reporting  2002  2004  2006  2008  2010

Seawater desalination and regional water planning Texas i-Water 2010  2001 Regional Water Plans  Region N and Nueces River Authority: Membrane Technology and Cost Factors for Siting Seawater Desalination Facilities in Texas  Region P and Lavaca-Navidad River Authority: Evaluation of Joslin Steam Electric Station as a site for a seawater desalination plant  Region L: Seawater Desalination, recommended water management strategy for Bexar County (2040)

Seawater desalination and regional water planning Texas i-Water 2010  2006 Regional Water Plans  Region H: Freeport (Dow Chemical)-Alternative water management strategy-Alternative water management strategy  Region L: Seawater Desalination, recommended water management strategy for Bexar County (2040)  Region M:  Seawater Desalination, recommended regional water management strategy for Cameron County  Seawater Desalination, recommended water management strategy for South Padre Island  Region N: Corpus Christi Seawater Desalination Plant-Alternative water management strategy

Seawater desalination and regional water planning Texas i-Water 2010  2010 Initially Prepared Regional Water Plans  Seawater desalination included as a recommended water management strategy in planning regions L and M  Seawater desalination included as an alternative water management strategy in planning regions H and N

Seawater desalination in Texas: strengths and weaknesses Strengths Weaknesses Texas i-Water 2010  Vision  Opportunity  Leadership support  Regional/State Water Planning Process  Consensus  Technology  Lack of a precedent  Cost  Energy requirements  Funding strategy  Vulnerability of coastal facilities
