Desalination is a great option and your right..very expensive! But what are they waiting on...the price to go down!!!! Things are going to get real expensive if they continue with the current trend!!!Originally posted by tarheelbybirth:
It hasn't gotten bad out there, yet. They've been pumping groundwater to make up for the surface water shortfall but much of that is from deep aquifers that will never recharge. Even the shallow aquifers are being pumped far faster than the recharge rate. They can't keep that up for much longer - Central Valley farmers are already having to drill twice as deep (down to 1,000 ft) to hit water. The only long-term solution would be desalination which is expensive.
