UCSB Long Range Development Plan
Public Speaks on UCSB's Expansion Plans
Santa Barbara Independent
Based on an increase of 5,000 students from the current enrollment of 20,000, the LRDP would include an additional 1,600 faculty and staff on top of the current 3,350 now employed. Clark's study noted a number of significant impacts, including impacts to Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas (ESHA), cultural, biological, and traffic impacts, and an estimated increase in water consumption of 856 acre feet per year -- a consumption rate he said may exceed the Goleta Water District's projected water supply.

UCSB should just take it upon themselves to build, constuct & maintain a desalination water plant. Being next to the ocean and having numerous water intakes pipelines already in place would make this quite simply for them. This I'm sure would help them in any permit process and help the whole county.
