Blog: Poseidon’s desalination plant’s supplemental EIR holds water according to the Court of Appeal

State Lands Commission, the Third District Court of Appeal upheld the State Lands Commission’s decision to prepare a supplemental environmental impact report (EIR) for a desalination plant in Huntington Beach, overturning an earlier trial court ruling that invalidated the EIR.
