precipitates out of the water any causes the water to turn brown when the flows
are increased. There - is some iron and manganese build up in the mains which
were installed in the old part of town in 1936, but the degree of build up is-
not great. Several alternatives were discussed for remedy of the situation
and the only positive method of dealing with the situation is to install a
water treatment plant. The water treatment plant was discussed by the Council
and they felt that at this point it was premature to install the water treat-
ment plantand the degree of the problem did not justify the current expense:.

ammonia to the chlorine to extend the life of the chlorine and to also research
the possibility of injecting chlorine at an intermediate point.
