Transcription
V' If Such a result could be obtained in the Oity of Las Vegas, you can readily see that our present supply would not only be sufficient to serve the City during the present emergency but to diminish the withdrawals from the Las Vegas Basin and possibly permit a sufficient replenishment thereof to build up a reserve underground supply which would take care of the needs of the City until other supplies are available. Of course, it will not be possible to secure the benefits which will flow from the use of meters without a substantial Increase in investment by the Company and a consequent increase in water charges to the customers. - 1 -have- ha-d our— s h o w i n g wha± th.fi 1.nnr»ftajuadr--ft<s^±ji— > «nri a w t o n - n g a a. T.ri n — n Although the amount of the investment is substantial, I would not hesitate to recommend it to our Board of Directors because I am firmly convinced that the use of meters is the most feasible way in which the City of Las Vegas can properly conserve the underground water resources of the Las Vegas Water Basin.
