File 20-6-2 (Personal) Mr, F. H, Knickerbocker: Referring to Mr. Huntley’s personal letter of February 17th, returned herewith, relative to capping of well at Las Vegas: The flow around outer casing at present time is, I understand from Well Contractor Roseoe Moss and a study of the well construction, coming from flow encountered between main flow at bottom of well and top of ground, and it is thought there is no flow coming up around the casing from the bottom of the well* When well is capped, we w ill be able to tell definitely i f this is so as flow w ill probably increase i f same comes from bottom of well, due to retarding flow of water, and this feature l. w ill be watched carefully and regulated by the valve which it is intended to install- when well is capped.
