% Los Angeles - April 16, 1953 36-15 Mr. Wm. Reinhardt: cc: Mr. L.R. Maag - LVegas Referring to Mr. Maag's letter to you of April l4th, his file W-2 5 -2 . I note initially that Mr. Pong states he is in no hurry for water service and will wait until Mr. Allen returns to Las Vegas the end of the month. I also note Mr. Allen suggests we should advise Mr. Pong he can have a 3/4- inch tap and 50 ft. of service for $5.00 or a 1 -inch tap and 50 ft. of service for $20.00.

In view of the fact that the nap attached to Mr. Maag's letter Indicates there is a service line coming south from Stewart, serving four lots and pre­sumably house connections are made therefrom, it might be a simple matter to run a 4-inch line up the alley and serve both tiers of lots. would be of help to me and I will endeavor to discuss this matter with Mr. Allen and Mr. Maag when I am in Las Vegas the 27th and 28th or sometime when I am there the end of the month and Mr. Allen will be there. I think in line with our conversation the other If you can develop any engineering information, it
