Odessa study of Fort Stockton water supply eyed at $180 million
City discussions assess cleaning Fort Stockton brackish groundwater for Odessa. Estimated capital costs around 180 million with a 93 mile pipeline and plant expansion to 50 million gallons daily. Fort Stockton would charge about 4.70 to 5.25 per thousand gallons, CRMWD at 2.20, and State officials seek firmer numbers. Odessa may sell water to industry to help fund costs, while Summit project amendments hinge on credit renewals and Chinese funding talks.
