  October). Ocean Desalination; Summary of Conclusions & Recommendations from conference. Long Beach, CA

(This summary of conclusions and recommendations was developed at conference on ocean desalination, sponsored by the Desal Response Group and the Aquarium of the Pacific. The stated goal of the conference was to provide “a fresh, balanced perspective of the potential role ocean desalination might play in Southern California’s water portfolio in 2030. The summary is divided into three categories: major conclusions, points of uncertainty and next steps.)
