Task 2

Salton Sequestration project (SSP)

Statement:

The Salton Sea in California and its surround land are ideal as natural carbon traps and should be recognized and protected as such, because protecting the water of the sea from evaporation would sequester carbon and improve the climate, and also improving the health, and safety of its residents.

Preface:

Identification of the Salton Sea as a carbon sequestration credit 5 does not entitle it to benefit from carbon credits. To accomplish this theory and maintain sequestration of carbon in the sea, the sea must be registered as a carbon asset. This is accomplished by creating a sequestration project with the carbon sequestration project6. This project will be called The Salton Sequestration project (SSP).

Introduction

The Salton Sea existence has been maintained primarily by agricultural return flows from the Imperial, Coachella, and Mexicali Valleys. The Salton Sea is a Transboundary Watershed; it is the Region’s Priority Watershed. The watershed is located in the Sonoran desert region in the southeastern corner of California, encompasses one-third of the Colorado River Basin Region (about 8,360 square miles), and contains five (out of a total of six) of the Region’s 303(d) Listed impaired surface water bodies for the local industry [1]. In 1924 and 1928, President Warren G. Harding, and then President Coolidge executed Public Water Reserve Order Numbers 90 and 114, respectively, for withdrawal of 123,360 acres of public land lying at an elevation of 220 feet below MSL, in and surrounding the Salton Sea. These lands were designated as a repository to receive and store agricultural, surface, and subsurface drainage waters. The State of California designated the Sea for this same purpose in 1968 [1, 2]. In 2015 the Salton Sea contained 1,728,595.8 metric tons of sequestered CO2 (total C02). See table, sourced from USGS national water information systems for the Salton Sea.

Goal

The SSP project will address the effective use of natural and manmade sinks where water preservation, dust, CO2, sequestering and reducing all other GHG emissions is the goal [3].

The goal of the project is to cover up to 100 thousand acres of a 236,800-acre open body of water with functional floating islands [4]. Some islands will target water treatment, new vegetation as well as energy generation; both types will prevent surface water evaporation and the releasing of sequestered carbon.

Benefits

This project has both short term and long-term benefits. The long-term benefits are the reduction of NAAQS violations which impact the local and regional public health [7]. The Project will further reduce long-term critical pollutants from local air [9], reducing hospitalizations associated with respiratory issues [8]. The project will increase local and regional land values. The long-term improvement of the water will revive the fish and wildlife gaming and license revenue. The Project short term will be major factor in the boost of tourism. The additional long-term effects of the project will be on microclimates with an expected reduction of extreme temperatures, growth in conserved habitat for migratory birds, endangered and threatened species [10].

The positive environmental impact of the project falls under two categories habitat restoration and water quality improvement. Studies performed by SDSU show the increase in habitat improves local and migrating bird survivability [1, 2], the increased vegetation removes nutrients, sequesters salt and other toxins improving water quality ensuring a safer food supply for local and migrating birds. The increase in water surface cover reduces surface water evaporation enabling the lake to reach aqua equilibrium with its 8100 square mile drainage basin. The result is a controllable terraformed region.

The Carbon Project

The project activity starts by creating interlinked functional floating islands that cover the water surface of the Salton Sea. These islands will create a lattice frame containing planting areas for tolerant plants for the region. The planted island will have smaller sections or platforms for support equipment. Some Islands can be configured as open spaces for specific bird type, or used as a mixed habitat to support multiple compatible colonies .

In all cases these Islands will support equipment that uses solar power for service functions such as lights, communications, and water aeration pumps.

Larger, more human service, functional islands can generate more power for computer farms, tourism business, and water desalination from the local geo thermal heat and by floating solar power plant arrays that cover more surface area and further reduce the evaporation. The larger floating solar station can be supported with clean hydro storage or liquid air for power normalization and solar down times.

The islands physical surfaces size and their ability to recycle surface evaporation [3] will reduce over 500,000-acre ft of annual water surface evaporation. After maturity the plant life grown in the lattice on the islands will naturally absorb nutrients from the water, Some plant types such as mangroves can actually sequesters salt in the bark, while still being a good source to sequesters CO2 in its vegetation.

The Island size and location on the surface, along with the vegetation will further capture the morning fog that happens most mornings across its surface, this is a source of pure salt free water that will further improve water quality around the island and expand over time to cover a large region of fresher water that will hold more bio life and further carbon storage.

The additional vegetation will naturally improve air quality and capture additional C02 in the water biomass further more each island reduces CO2 emissions due to evaporation of the Sea. The project will also develop tree farms on Islands and public lands in one acre parcels each sequestering 50.8 additional metric tons of CO2 or 186 TCO2e per year.

Manage crisis

The goal of the project is to change the industry practice; which in this the area is to allow 1.3-1.5 million acre feet to evaporate each year [1, 2, and 10]; this large scale evaporation contributes to the total GHG emissions [7] from the state due to the sequestered storage size, its daily sequestration mechanism. The project will mitigate the surface evaporation using practiced methods that have science and experience to ensure a successful generational project [4]. These project examples [4] have shown that they are effective at reducing surface evaporations through the islands mechanical effect, but also effective in local water improvement through its root vegetation. In the mean time both the exposed and covered water surface and the entire bio mass in the sea continues to capture and sequester carbon.

The SSP project will negate the requirement for the local industry to change any practice other than the type of management, rather than manage and over see crisis and death, they can manage growth.

Project Features

The primary source of the sink is the existing 370 sq mile main body of water and the biomass 1,728,595.8 TCO2e contained in the water. Table 1 shows total C02 content, water amount and other details sourced from the USGA. The table shows the amount of total tons of carbon at risk in the waters of the sea. SSP plan to generate new plants on floating islands structures creates opportunities to clean up the water, the shore line area and even the sediment on the bottom, take the contaminated byproducts found in water and sediment and encase them into floating functional island that help maintain the growth and safety of the sea. By cleaning the water the economical area will improve, this influx will further generate more bio mass sequestration in the area.

The Salt content of the sea is quite high due to soil leaching practices and the sheer length of the Colorado River that terminates at the sink. This river along with two others, the white and the Alamo River from Mexico, dump large quantities if salt into the sea each year. This salt can be once extracted can be used for ground or other structure on a floating island.

The soil used for planting on the islands can be source from bio char from local farms or from cleaned sediment taken from the bottom of the sea. Empirical data show that trees do create their own climate, and this rule follows for small forest. Water capture by leaves and soil during evaporation cycles and used on these islands to water plants will eventually filter through the island growth and return to the Salton sea as clean salt free water.

Water retention due to mitigated of evaporation will sequester and capture new GHG and maintain sequestered CO2 in and on 6 MAF of water.

Advantages

The estimated amount of CO2 emissions reduced by each 1 acre project is projected to be 7.92 tons per year.

Identifying the Salton Sea as a carbon credit source will enable the California state to meet Part 2 of Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to greenhouse gases. “The state board is required to adopt a statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit equivalent to the statewide greenhouse gas emissions level in 1990 to be achieved by 2020 and to adopt rules and regulations in an open public process to achieve the maximum, technologically feasible, and cost-effective greenhouse gas emissions reductions.” This will also contribute to the Renewable Energy Transmission Initiative 2.0. The State has also committed to GHG reductions in various senate and house bills such as California Senate Bill 375; this bill recognizes the detrimental effects of air pollution on the community and commits funding to address this; California Senate Bill 535 recognizes that pollution travels and concentrates far from the source and these concentrations show health effects that are real. Both of the bills target money and dates to reduce and sequester carbon, the SSP project would move the state closer to its GHG reduction goal with a project that has sustainability, and has numerous other benefits to the health and safety of the local citizens.
