To honor their cause, all the anti-Israel people in San Diego County are going to need to boycott tap water. And everything made with tap water. Like food.

[The idea for the plant is almost 20 years old.]

With all the droughts they have in Southern California, you’d expect them to move a little more quickly than this.

“...Eight pumps will push 54-million gallons of water 10 miles uphill every day...”

I think those pumps should be powered by windmills and solar panels.

38 billion gallons per day!!!!!!???? could this be right? what California uses in a day. USGS estimate, whatever that is.

They’re gonna need a bigger desalinization plant.

And about 300 of them.

We all know what is coming next.

It’ll all get washed away by The Great Flood of 2015.

Well, this will also lower the ocean water level near there. Since the global warming geniuses decided oceans near California were rising faster than other places.

Eight powerful pumps will push 54-million gallons of water 10 miles uphill every day.

So the reservoir is at an elevation of 50,000 FT plus? LOL. They will have some serious pressure at the tap, for sure!
