The Desal Link project will connect key community water sources by installing an underground pipeline between the Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant and water mains connected to the Cater Water Treatment Plant.
Construction [began] on November 16 at Mission and Garden Streets and continue south on Garden, Sola, Olive, Ortega, Calle Cesar Chavez, and Yanonali Streets. This new pipeline will enable desalinated water to reach our entire service area while enhancing system resiliency and improving water quality.

Thank you and condolences to all who live on this route and will have to deal with construction for the next year. It’s inconvenient and will absolutely suck, but this is good for our community’s longevity and reliance on limited water supplies.
