EVALUATION OF SEAWATER DESALINATION PROJECTS<br />
PROPOSED FOR THE MONTEREY PENINSULA<br />
Potential Shared Distribution Facilities with Marina Coast Water District<br />
Representatives <strong>of</strong> CAW and the Marina Coast Water District (MCWD) have discussed the<br />
potential for sharing major distribution system facilities (pipelines, booster pumps, valves,<br />
etc.) for the portion <strong>of</strong> the CWP delivery system between the desalination plant to the CAW<br />
service area that runs through the MCWD service area (City <strong>of</strong> Marina and adjacent areas,<br />
and the former Fort Ord Military Reservation) (see Figure 2). The purposes <strong>of</strong> the shared<br />
facilities are to reduce costs to both service areas and to allow an interconnection that would<br />
allow water from one system to be provided to the other in case <strong>of</strong> an emergency. No firm<br />
estimate <strong>of</strong> potential cost savings is available, and potential institutional arrangements among<br />
CAW, MCWD, and regulatory agencies have not been addressed.<br />
