Cal Am Desal Project Draft Environmental Review Expected Next Week

A state Public Utilities Commission representative indicated this week the delayed draft environmental review document for the proposed Monterey Peninsula desalination project will be released next week, three weeks after originally scheduled. CPUC spokesman Christopher Chow said the commission estimates that the project’s draft combined environmental impact report and environmental impact statement would be released “mid to late next week,” and promised to keep The Herald apprised of “any new developments.”
