Massive fresh-water aquifer found offshore

"In a new survey of the sub-seafloor off the U.S. Northeast coast, scientists have made a surprising discovery: a gigantic aquifer of relatively fresh water trapped in porous sediments lying below the salty ocean. It appears to be the largest such formation yet found in the world." - Excerpt from Earth Institute, Columbia University
