After more than a decade of debate, the coastal commission is set to vote on the proposed $1.4bn project near Los Angeles
California officials are deciding the fate of a controversial desalination plant planned along the state’s southern coast, in a vote that comes as the American west is battling an increasingly perilous drought that is starving the region of water resources.
After more than a decade of debate about the project, the California coastal commission on Thursday will vote on a proposal for a $1.4bn desalination plant in Huntington Beach, south of Los Angeles.
