    Mr. MM.

In this con­nection, I will appreciate your approval or comments on the proposed form of notification to offenders over signa­ture ©f ilty official, per Sample attached to ray letter December 13th. Mr. Anderson also supervised the monthly weir measurements taken at eaoh of the wells and springs the last day of January, computed the time used in eaoh ease and estimated the waste from this source at 1,207,000 gallons. We are thus placed in the position of wasting sore water ourselves on the two days t e weir the wells than the combined wastage fro® refrigeration machines for one d^y. * The State Snglneer*8 representative herehhas directed my attention on one or two cooaslons to the re­quirement that artesian wells must be equipped with meters.
