is the best plan for the city.

The recommended plan (pumping from Shawatlan Lake) has been
compared with the Woodworth Lake gravity plan from all points
of view i.e: reliability, economics and future expansion.

The pumping plan is more reliable because it does away with the
long pipeline from Woodworth Lake, which due to its location is.
subject to slides and require constant. patrolling.

The pumping plan is more economical because the total cost is
$900,000.00 compared to the gravity system cost of $1,382,000.00.
The annual costs are also less, the pumping plan costs being $102,.
162.00 per year while the gravity plan will be $126,765.00 per year.

The pumping plan can be increased to take care of future expan-
sion at much less additional expense than can the gravity plan. To
increase the pumping plan to take care of a population of 20,000
would cost $75,000.00, while to increase the gravity plan to supply
a population of 20,000 would cost $230,000.00. |
