Fred Ameri of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board was until Thursday a senior vice president of a firm that made hundreds of thousands of dollars working on the Poseidon desalination project.
The
water quality board allows the plant to draw up to 126.7 million
gallons of ocean water per day.
Officials say Linda Ackerman disqualified herself from a hearing
on a proposed desalinization plant because of her involvement with
two other water agencies that support the project.
The Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board postponed
until February a vote to permit the Poseidon Resources plant to
draw water directly from the ocean.
