Guarding Known Water Sources Rates Far Ahead of De-Salting
LOCAL WATER OFFICIALS resist hype over new de-salting methods proposed by MIT professor Edward R. Gilliland.

The latest electrical membrane process awaits large-scale testing and may not help California soon. Arizona interests may seize on any development to influence Congress over Colorado River apportionment. Even if promising, the approach remains years away, so officials continue to protect existing water sources.
