A proposal has been made for a desalination plant to be built on South Padre Island. The plant, which would cost $1 billion, aims to address water shortages in the Rio Grande Valley. The water woes in the region are partly due to a lack of water from Mexico.
An Israeli-based company is looking to partner with a US company to bring this project to fruition. Further details on the proposed desalination plant can be found through local news sources, including Yourbasin.
