A elx Inch Pelton Surge Suppressor is installed at the discharge of eaeh pump* Th.e discharge from these pumps is against a constant static head of ©35 feet* Their capacities are as follows* Humber of Pumps In Ooeration Discharge Oallons Per Minute Total Dynamic Head X 5,580 6t5 feet 2 10,800 677 * l 15,375 717 *» t 19,180 781 ? 5 22,290 802 " 0 at,815 839 « The Booster Pump Building is one story and of reinforced concrete construc­tion. It Is divided into a pump room, circuit breaker room* battery room and supply and storage space. The pump room Is equipped with a 10-ton* hand operated hoist* mounted on a hand operated bridge crane. Ail cf the electrical controls are located in circuit breaker room. The booster station transformer bank is located in the grounds adjacent to the booster pump house. The transformer bank is 750 KVA* Allis Chalmers ©9/t,l6kv, fSRMIML RESERVOIRS The Terminal Reservoirs consist of the following units* Two Reservoirs. Waste Water Pipe bine, dates Algae Control Equipment. The Terminal Reservoirs are two separate units with a combined capacity at normal high water level of 31*517,o00 gallons. Their maximum capacity, with the water surface at the lip of the emergency waste, way is 36,582,900 gallons. These reservoirs are cf the same type of construction a® the reservoirs at the Booster Pump Station. They are constructed within a shallow cut, com­pletely surrounded by fill. The bottom of each reservoir is flat and 200 feet square. The sloping walls have a total rise of 30 feet on 90 feet. At the top of the sloped sections each reservoir is 380 feet square, The lining is 2 inch Sunnite laid on a shallow layer of stabilised soil. The over-flow spillways empty into a concrete shaft, from which a 36 inch, reinforced con­crete pipe extends to a point on the north side of the state highway. This pipe line conveys waste water and sludge from the Water Treatment Plant, On the north side of the highway the 36 inch pipe line empties into an earth­work ditch which conveys the waste water out on to the desert to an evaporation A to inch, welded steel pipe line discharges from the bottom of each of the two reservoirs to the Water Treatment Plant, with a geared slide gate at the inlet end of each. The Inlet of the reservoirs from the to Inch pressure line is at elevation 2035* which is also the normal high water level in the reservoirs. At the head of this inlet Is located an automatic copper sulfate feeder for the control of algae. These reservoirs are not covered. t
