The purpose of the Project is to increase access to reliable drinking water service through the development of an additional water supply source in compliance with applicable quality standards for drinking water, contributing to the preservation of human health.
The proposed project consists of the design, construction and operation of a desalination plant with a production capacity of 250 liters per second (lps) or 5.7 million gallons per day (mgd) (the “Project”). The Project includes an arrangement of seven wells for seawater intake (6 for operation, 1 reserve), an 8.4-kilometer (5.22- mile) seawater pipeline, a 2.44-kilometer (1.51-mile) brine discharge pipeline, a 1.74-km (1.08-mile) desalinated water transmission line, a 2,000-cubic-meter (528,344-gallon) master tank, approximately an 11-km (6.9-mile) power line and two electric substations in San Quintín, Ensenada, Baja California. The Project will be implemented under a public-private partnership (PPP), and the drinking water produced by the Project will be supplied for public use in the San Quintín Valley.
The outcomes as a result of the Project include supplying a reliable drinking water supply of 250 lps (5.7 mgd) in compliance with drinking water quality standards.
