If they are running their waste process water that contains salt through a RO process their will be very little precipitants in it.

I drove by Port Manchac today.

It is inconceivable to me that people are whining about this almost inert little plant given the crap that is stored and processed there today. I bet you there were over 100 IBCs outside of buildings there today.

I don't have a dog in this fight with this plant happening, just expressing my opinion that there is no chance that with today's EPA and DEQ standards will a new construction plant get a permit that allows them to discharge effluent that is "3x the salt concentration of the ocean" into Pass Manchac or North Pass, especially considering the state of the coast.
