GBRA studies desalination for water needs - Seguin Gazette


GBRA studies desalination for water needs - Seguin Gazette: News

SEGUIN — Engineering firms from across the state were in Seguin on Wednesday to hear about a potential desalination plant on the Texas coast designed to provide power and water to the fast growing region.

The firms were at a pre-proposal meeting for those interested in responding to the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority’s request for qualifications for the selection of a consultant for a feasibility study on the project.
Described in the meeting at GBRA’s River Annex, the desalination plant is envisioned as having an initial water supply capacity of 25 million gallons per day, 28,000 acre-feet per year, with ultimate capacity of up to 250 million gallons per day, 280,000 acre-feet per year.
The project is expected to take about 10 years to be fully implemented from feasibility to construction and startup.
