S. Navy owned water line which connects to the mains of your system at Keogan's Corner be purchased for inclusion in your distribution system. The intent of this proposed purchase is understood to be for the purpose of effecting water service to a considerable number of additional customers. Under the present operating and service conditions the Indian Island Annex doei not receive, at all times sufficient water to meet the needs of the personnel living on the premises and the industrial activities. It has been necessary many times during the past year to supplement the supply by producing our own wells which is expensive end not considered to be entirely reliable and desirable. Any increase of the demand or use of the water made available to this activity would place the station in an undesirable and possibly emergency situation. There are no plans at this time nor is it considered desirable in any respect for this activity to recommend the disposition of all or any part of the present station water system. It is desired to express thanks and appreciation to this body and to Mr. Lyall Arey, City Water Superinteddent for the courtesy and consideration extended to this activity in this matter. This has been a service to this station. Very truly yours, F. C. Channell, Jr. Commander, USN Officer in Charge After some discussion the above communication was referred to the Water Committee and Water Superintendent.
