I ~ Klevated Storage Taxis, to be installed in shop ground#, capacity 225,000 gallons. A rough estimate has been made of the probable cost, in order that this important feature may be given consideration, and it is thought that the entire installation could be made for approximately #175,000. in f«>av<wg the above recomaendation, consideration has bean given to all contingencies such as fire hazards, increase in Itailroad business, increase in population of has ?egas, together with hazards nhlch might exist under certain conditions if we did not have an adequate supply of water in our yards, Consideration was given to the sanitary conditions by recommending a gravel filter and this treatment would also provide a more desirable water for boiler use during such time as the softener is undergoing repair. With the above installation and when consumption is equal to the available supply, additional storage should be constructed or an additional well drilled and the flow discharged into the reservoir? 1 . "»? ip “ || the procedure depending, of course, upon conditions existing at the time. It would be my recommendation that the reservoir be designed so that additional units could be constructed when larger storage facilities were found economically necessary in order to conserve direct flow and properly supply the consumers, cc~Iir.W,B *Aria8fcro»g, 2.
