REPORT: CAPE MAY’S DESALINATION PLANT WILL NEED MAJOR WORK

Cape May’s desalination plant will need an expansion and replacement of some key membranes over the next ten years.  The Cape May Star and Wave reports that a master plan of the city’s water system was prepared by a local engineering firm.  The Cape May water system’s average water demand is 1.1 million gallons per day; unaccounted water makes up about 16 percent of water use.
