I agree.% 0 ' - & l»as Vegas - September 17# 1952 V oes lie 1« £. Bennett Confirming conversation concerning request of Young & ; Smith Ready Mix Concrete Company for reconsideration of r a t e ^ . for water used at its ready-mix concrete plant. In the absence of a classification for ready-mix plants, we have heretofore applied the rate of 5 cents per cubic yard applicable to concrete work, which rate was increased to 6 cents, effective September 1, 1952. R@c.dy-iaix concrete requires an average of kO gallons of water per cubic yard and with & 25$ allowance for cleaning up, our current rate of 6 cents produces a return of approximately #1.20 per 1000 gallons, as compared with an average rate of 10 cents per 1000 gallons for all classes of service. At Mr. Bennett’s request, I discussed this subject with Mr. Young of Young & Smith and agreed to recommend submission to the Public Service Commission of a supplemental tariff covering water for rtady-mix plants, with rates as follows! The above rates will produce a return of approximately 20 cents per 1000 gallons and are satisfactory to Mr. Young. Concrete Plants 1000 c.y. capacity or less $10*00 per month 1001 c.y. to 2500 c.y. capacity 25.00 per month Over 2500 c.y. capacity 50.00 per month
