Southern California study identifies brine-concentrate issues


The Orange County GWR generates most brine-concentrate in Southern California

Robin Wiseman, editor, D&WR

The Southern California Regional Brine-Concentrate Management Study is a collaboration between the US Bureau of Reclamation and 14 local and state agency partners, who together form the Brine Executive Management Team. The team identified the management of brine-concentrate from desalination and other water treatment processes as significant in addressing southern California's water supply reliability.

As the amount of brine-concentrate waste increases, several implementational, regulatory and institutional issues present complex challenges to agencies. The USBR report says that there are a number of different elements that together formulate the regional landscape for management of these waste streams. This article sets out the report's findings.
