    Sept. 12, 1951 Fileo OO^B Hon. Robert A. Allen, Chairman Public Service Commission of Nevada Carson City, Nevada D e a r Mr. Allen: You ’will recall that In your Opinion and Order in I. AS. Docket No. 127, you modified our proposed rules by adding there to a Buie 8(a) rela­tive to a charge for taxing water mains but excluded therefrom the proposals In our tariff for additional charges for connections In exoess of 3/4*. X understand that Mr. Johnson, the Acting General Manager of the Water Company has discussed this matter with you over the telephone and has ad­vised you that we have had numerous requests for extensions for service lines one inoh and over* X therefore felt It advisable to file an Amendment to the tariff whioh you authorized and am enclosing herewith the a M two copi eosr iogfi ntahle psriogpnoesde bdy Amendment. The Amend­ment is only to Rule 8(a) but under your rules, rela­tive to the publication of tariffs, I have revised in its e n t i r e c o v e r s Rules 4 to 9 Inclusive, including 8(a)T I believe Mr* Johnson explained the purpose of this amendment to you, namely, that multiple dwellings and large buildings require service lines in excess of 3/4* and this requirement is also made by the Board of Fire Underwriters and the Plumbing Code of the City of Las Vegas. Under the circumstances, I think it essential there be included in our Rules a provision relative to service lines in exoess of 3/4** \
