' <br /> <br />The sewage treatment facilities are not inundated by the projected <br />flood due to the dikes surrounding the plant. The Town's well is inundated, <br />however and a loss of water service is possible. <br /> <br />It may be noted in the previous tables that the velocity of the <br />water is quite high, and will undoubtably cause sever erosion of the banks, <br />except along the dike, which is protected with riprap and should be stable. <br />It is anticipated that both bridges will wash out near the abutments, and <br />the possibility of their total loss is quite strong. <br /> <br />10 <br /> <br />----.- _. ,.---.
