Concern over fresh water supply is becoming increasingly common in our nation due to pressures from drought and population growth. Our coastal states are frequently evaluating the viability of desalination systems to provide their fresh water needs. Desalination is an energy intensive process, so it is quite common for these facilities to be built in close proximity to electric power plants. For this reason, it is also reasonable to consider the use of nuclear desalination as a potential option.

MWD/San Diego is ranking the Salton Sea above the rate-payers.

I'm curious as to what water rights the Salton Sea has?

Not once in this article (or any others posted on this forum for that matter) has it ever been suggested that San Diego cut back on its water consumption. Not once.

I'm always amazed at the stark absence of common sense when any governing body gets involved in a public decision.

California, as a state and a society has a long row to hoe if they can't bring themselves to control their growth.
