The increasing maintenance of an aging lime-softening water treatment plant represented a financial and reliability risk for the City of St. Augustine, Florida. Consequently, the city proposed the construction of a low-pressure reverse osmosis (LPRO) water treatment facility that will use the brackish water of the Florida aquifer as its source. This will help the city transition to a much higher yielding alternative water supply and help it implement a long-term water supply and resource management strategy that ensures the conservation of fresh water supplies.
