Embodiment Construction
[0027] Referring to FIG. 1, a preferred embodiment of the filtered seawater collection system 10 constructed by the inventive method is shown. The system 10 is comprised of a subterranean reservoir 12 that is preferably sunk in the ground at an area that is protected from wind, beach erosion, littoral drift, storm surges and other damaging coastal forces. Here, the reservoir 12 is shown sunk behind a first set of dunes 14 adjacent to a beach 16. The reservoir 12 is connected to a first end 18 of an intake pipe 20, and the pipe 20 extends outward from the reservoir 12 through the nearshore 22 and out into the open ocean 24. The nearshore 22 as shown is a geologic area below the beach 16 and below sea level 26. In some coastal regions, the nearshore 22 has a porous geology, which allows seawater 28 to filter down free of biological material and debris. However, in other coastal regions the nearshore 22 has an all but impermeable geology. As noted previously herein, the geology of the ...
