<br />Project cost
<br />The construction cost of this initial development of the project
<br />can now be determined, except for such further credits as may be
<br />applied, due to sales of salvage material on hand in the Banning
<br />storage yard and in Los Angeles, and for the few remaining con-
<br />struction items whose cost must be estimated, The following tabu-
<br />lation compares the construction cost to June 30, 1941 with the bond
<br />issue estimate published in July 1931, prior to the bond election of
<br />September 29, 1931. The cost includes an amount to cover the
<br />estimated cost of a San Marino lateral, a possible extension of the.
<br />Orange County feeder, and completion of the project, at some
<br />future date, to a delivery capacity of 750 cubic feet per second,
<br />Included in this additional work are two units in each pumping
<br />plant and several distribution feeder lines within the District area.
<br />The estimates of the deferred items to complete to the ultimate
<br />delivery of 1,500 cubic feet per second are also shown, It will be
<br />seen that the cost of the items contemplated in 1931 under runs the
<br />bond issue estimate by $20,844,000, and underruns the $220,000,-
<br />000 authorized bond issue by $22,000,000, With the cost of the
<br />initial water softening and filtration plant added, the underron
<br />of the bond issue is $18,300,000,
