COST OF FORT FLAGLER LINE City Engineer Sadler presented communication estimating the cost of rebuilding the Fort Flaglor pipe e as follows, to -wit: October 18, 1930 the Mayor and City Council tlemen: I herowith submit estimate for rebuilding Fort Flagler pipe line iron Station 0f00-Station 1527?50 Quiloene Water Supply line -to Station 467+50 U. S. Reservation line, Fort Flagler. From Stu 0+00 to Sta 227#50 the line will be 6" wire wound wood pipe, untreated, with creosote col- s. From Stu 227-50 to 467-50 the line will be 4" wire wound wood pipe with creosote collars, About 4000 �t of this line is cast iron pipe; part across the Portage Canal and part across Scow Bay. There is a possibility that this pipe is in good phape" however, this cannot be ascertained without i services of a diver and putting the pressure on the line. The lengths for pipe, excavation, etc., were taken from the profile which was part of the plans from .ch the original line was built. If the line is built I would recommend a change in tho.alignment and grade the present line from Sta 60/00 to Sta 75+00 a distance of 1500 feet or less. After a survey has been le lowering the grade hero would out;;the pressure some 16# which in new required to put the water over the ip. It would make a difference of about $419.00 as figured now. Another location could possibly be made !- 0 1115Ji�a. _. 1 �I u 11 0 Minutes of Regular Session of Oct. (Report by City Engineer continued) for this line and following along the highway to where the present pipe crosses the Chimacum Road. This would shorten the length of the line a little but I thinkthatthe increased cost of construction due to heavier piesaure pipe and cost of new right of way, the cost would probably be more than over the present right of way: There would be an advantage in this lino that would insure a steadier flow of water to Had- lock-Irondale and Fort Flagler. However, to arrive at a definite cost a survey would have to be made as I have not sufficient data to make anestimate of the difference. Estimate from Sta 0+00 to Stu 227+50 which is the Westerly side of the Canal. This estimate pro- vides for the 6" pipe as previously outlined, together with the necessary valves, air valve, air valve boxes, blow -off valves, blow -off valve boxes, etc., but does not provide for any now fittings where connections are made to the main line for Hadlook and Irondale. The fittings in the present line should be in good con- dition and could be used in the now line. The cost of this work without the proposed change at Sta 601-00 is estimated at $20,102.82. The same with proposed change at Sta 60f00 is $20,521.89. Estimate from Sta 227+50 to Sta 467+60 which is the Reservation line, Fort Flaglor. This estimate provides for a 4" wire wound wood pipe, untreated, with creosote collars, together with the necessary valves, air valves, air valve boxes, blow -off valves, blow -off valve boxes, etc., also a 6" motor on the West side of the'Cnnal or Scow Bay. The cost of this work is $12,538.51. If any of the cast iron pipe, bull joints or concrete has to be replaced in the Portage Canal or Soow Bay I have estimated what I think is sufficient to take care of any work that we may have to do. The estimate including this work would be $14,847.04. This makes a total for the line complete from Sta 0400 Sta 1627+50 Big Quiloene Water Supply line to Sta 467+50 Reservation line, Fort Flagler, $35,368.93. Length of line from Sta 0400 to 227+50 4:3 Miles 2274-50 to 467+50 4:54 " Total length of line 8:84 Miles Yours very truly, WJS:OFP W. J. SADLER City Engineer Said communication was ordered filed.
