A tender for a new desalination plant in the Western Galilee has been advanced by several years due to the ongoing water crisis. The plant, expected to produce at least 100 million cubic meters of water annually, will be located near another desalination facility currently under construction. This initiative is part of a broader national plan to increase Israel's overall desalination capacity.

The inter-ministerial committee for seawater desalination, operating under the Accountant General's division at the Ministry of Finance, released the pre-qualification (PQ) documents for an international tender. This tender covers the planning, financing, construction, operation, and maintenance (BOT) of the "Western Galilee B" desalination facility.
