WORK BEGINS ON
PIPE LINE 10
HENEY CREEK
The Cordova Power Company al
ready has begun work on the exten
sion of its water system, which will
be built this summer in order to get
an auxiliary supply of water from
Heney creek.
H. J. Appleby, with several chain
men. today began the survey of the
proposed pipe line which will run to
Heney creek. After the profile maps
, are finished the pipe necessary for
the construction of the line will be
ordered from the outside, and the ac
tive work of installation will begin
immediately after the arrival of the
pipe. . v*;f f il.?
I account of the* different pres
sures to which the pipe will be sub
jected, it is impossible to order it un
til after the profiles have been fin
ished.
< The extension of the pipe line is
considered necessary by the power
company on account of the shortage
of water caused by the unusually cold
weather last winter, when for the first
time in Its history Cordova suffered
from a water famine.
It Is estimated that fully 500,000
gallons of water is flowing in Heney
creek even in the coldest weather, and
this added to the already large supply
will prove ample for city use under
the most adxerse conditions.
The cost of the new improvement
!■ estimated at edose to $10,00(1, but
; the grdwtBf of Cordofa which is ex
p'eeted, is considered by the power
company HSUustiftcatlon for the large
expenditure.!
