The City recently investigated the possible purchase of an aban- <br />doned railroad right-of-way from the plaster mill to the vicinity of the <br />Big Thompson School. At least part of this right - of-way would make an excelr" <br />lent location for an additional pipeline if constructed. At the request of <br />the Water Committee, we also investigated the possibility of utilizing an <br />existing tunnel located northwest of Big Thompson School. Elevations of this <br />tunnel were determined by field survey and were found to be higher than the <br />present filters and therefore unsuitable for use. <br />IMPROVEMENTS ON TRANSMISSION SYSTEM "B" <br />Again these improvements depend upon the location of additional treat- <br />ment facilities. Should these facilities be constructed at the present plant <br />site, the 34 -inch pipeline must be extended approximately 5,000 feet to the <br />storage tank site. In any case, this 34 -inch line must be extended to the <br />location of any new treatment plant. This pipeline is extimated to cost <br />$25.00 per linear foot in place. <br />- 26 - <br />
