Encyclopedia description
The Water Preparation Plant does not mine or harvest water itself; instead it relies upon third party water deliveries. The Water Prep Plant enriches water with minerals and trace elements required by various target species. While most life-forms can consume water meant for another species for a limited period of time, prolonged exposure to the wrong type is most definitely not recommended.
