The United States has announced a R90-million additional humanitarian assistance package for Namibia, for “life-saving food assistance and nutrition support to the most vulnerable Namibian children and their caregivers”.
The Texas Water Development Board gave the OK for $535,111,000 in financing to help fund the city of Corpus Christi’s Inner Harbor Seawater Desalination Plant.
In 2020, the city was approved for a $222 million revenue bond from the Texas Water Development Board for the Inner Harbor facility. The council received the first installment of $11 million and are now asking the approval to receive the remaining $212 million.
The plant will be capable of producing potable water from saline source water derived from seawater wells, and it has guaranteed to deliver 1.7M gal/day of potable water to BWS’ water system on a 24/7 basis.
Arizona officials voted to advance a $5.5-billion project to build a water desalination plant, 200-mile pipeline and associated infrastructure as part of a plan to address drought-driven water uncertainty in the state. But growing controversy around the plan and the method of implementation threatens to derail the proposal.
IDE says the plant could supply up to 3 million households—more than the 2.6 million households currently in Arizona. The plant would initially supply less water per year, about 300,000 acre-ft, according to the company.
