The California Coastal Commission approved Oct. 13 the construction of a $140 million desalination plant at Doheny State Beach in Dana Point to turn 5 million gallons of ocean water into drinking water per day, as the state grapples with a persistent drought.

The Doheny Desalination Project is estimated to be functional in 2027.
