Mombasa Mainland Desalination Plant Mombasa Mainland Desalination Plant Mombasa Mainland Desalination Plant (MMDP), is a planned water purification project in Kenya. The water treatment facility would be located on the mainland of the seaport city of Mombasa, on Kenya's Indian Ocean coast. The county of Mombasa lacks a source of potable water, within its boundaries. The fresh water used in the county is sourced from neighboring Kwale County, Kilifi County and Taita Taveta County.

Light-curve analysis gave a rotation period of 16.67 hours with a brightness variation of 0.16 magnitude (). Previous lightcurves were obtained by French amateur astronomer René Roy in February 2006 (17.6 hours, Δ0.15 mag; ), as well as by Scot Hawkins and Richard Ditteon at Oakley Observatory in May 2007 (17.12 hours, Δ0.25 mag; ). On the SMASS taxonomic scheme, "Mombasa" is a , an intermediate between the carbonaceous C and X-type, while it is also described as a
