Desalination plant brings relief to Ensenada residents struggling with limited water supply.- Mexico

Baja California’s first utility-scale desalination plant has launched operations, supplying 5.7 million gallons a day of converted seawater to municipal water users in the port of Ensenada.

The reverse-osmosis facility, which has the capacity to double in size, is seen as a critical piece of infrastructure for Ensenada, whose 390,000 residents have been almost entirely dependent on aquifers for their water supply.

Water plan urges preparation for dry times in New Mexico.

New Mexico’s supply of groundwater should be reserved for periods of drought, communities should have sharing agreements in place when supplies are short and alternatives such as desalination should be explored regardless of the cost.

The recommendations are part of the state’s draft water plan released late Monday. The public will have 30 days to comment on the lengthy document.

Updated every five years, the plan acknowledges the growing pressures of drought and climate change on New Mexico’s drinking and irrigation supplies.
