Las Vegas - September 17, 1952 Igf f W M , | Mr. ¥m. Reinhardt - Los Angeles cc: Mr. E. E. Bennett Confirming conversation concerning request of Young & Smith Ready Mix Concrete Company for reconsideration of rate for water used at its ready-mix concrete plant. In the absence of a classification for ready-mix plants, we have heretofore applied the rate of 5 cents per cubic yard applicable to concrete work, which rate was increased to 6 cents, effective September 1, 1952. Ready-mix concrete requires an average of 40 gallons of water per cubic yard and with a 25$ allowance for cleaning up, our current rate of 6 cents produces a return of approximately $1.20 per 1000 gallons, as compared with an average rate of 10 cents per 1000 gallons for all classes of service. At Mr. Bennett's request, I discussed this subject with Mr. Young of Young & Smith and agreed to recommend submission to the Public Service Commission of a supplemental tariff covering water for ready-mix plants, with rates as follows: Ready-Mix Concrete Plants 1000 c.y. capacity or less $10.00 per month 1001 c.y. to 2500 c.y. capacity 25.00 per month Over 2500 c.y. capacity 50.00 per month The above rates will produce a return of approximately 20 cents per 1000 gallons and are satisfactory to Mr. Young.
