Hon. J.0. Allard, Page 2 Deo. 2 2 , 1950 of the hearing, the Water Company secured the loan of turbine and centrifugal pumps and oonduoted a aerlee of testa. In the course of those testa it developed that possibly the greatest increase of production oould be secured from the installation of pimps on Wells Hos* 8, 10 and 11, rattier than on Wells Hos. 9, 10 and 11, although a test was oonduo- ted as X have stated, on Well So. 9. The following table indicates the results of the tests on Welle Nos. 8, 10 and 11: with Free Pump Flow Net Increase Well No. JSE m qpD 8 1350 877 473 681,120 10 2471 1316 1155 1,663,200 :flX 1800 1035 jm 1.101.600 Total 5621 3228 2393 3,445,920 3 Welle As a natter of further Information, I might state that the test on Well Ho. 9 showed a free flow of 671 GPM and a produotion with a pump of 920 OPH or a net increase of 249 You will note from the above table that with the pumps on Wells Hoe. 8, 10 and 11, the Increased production amounts to just under three and a half million gallons per day and it is the opinion of our engineers that with an increase in the BPN of one or more of those pumps, with the resulting increase in the draw-down, the increased produotion oould be maintained during the emergency periods at a minimum of at least three and a half million gallons per day. During the course of these tests, the draw­down i n Well No. 8 below the top of the Conorste mat increased from 29 ft. to 33 ft., on Well Ho. 10 from 16.3 ft. to 29.8 ft. and on Well Ho. 11 from 15.3 ft. to 15.8 ft.
