It should be said that the use of concrete reservoirs, which are not buried in the earth, and which carry a considerable head of water, is of recent date. I believe, however, that with the moderate pressure which will be carried by the proposed reser- voir, with careful design and construction, it can be depended upon for successful and permanent use.


The cost of the entire high service improvements, including the piping, is given in Estimates IV and V, the former giving the cost with a steel stand pipe, and the latter with a concrete reservoir.

SUMMARY.


The following is a summary of the cost of the different plans proposed :


I. The development of the Purgatory Brook source as a supplementary supply, to be used only when the Buckmaster Pond source is insuffi- cient or unsatisfactory in quality or appearance. First cost, $28,045 00


Addition to annual maintenance expenses, 2,100 00


II. The development of the Purgatory Brook source as the principal supply, holding the Buck- master Pond plant as an auxiliary only. First cost, 59,763 00


Addition to annual maintenance expenses, 3,300 00


III. Development the same as above, but with a gas producer plant instead of a steam plant for pumping. First cost, 64,363 00


Addition to annual maintenance expenses, 3,350 00


IV. High service improvements with steel stand


pipe 50 feet in diameter and 60 feet high, 22,941 00


V. High service improvements with concrete reser- voir, 29,966 00


The above estimates do not include anything for land or water damages.


Owing to the fact that there are other questions than those of engineering and economics involved, this is one of those cases where it is difficult for an engineer to make a positive recom- mendation in regard to the most desirable method of develop- ment. The development under Plan I is certainly the economic one, as it entails a first cost of but $28,000, as compared with $60,000 for Plan II, and an addition to the annual expenses of but $2, 100, as against $3,300.


From my knowledge of Buckmaster Pond, gained only by


IS


recent studies made in the preparation of this report, I believe that that supply can generally be used with satisfaction. There will no doubt be times when vegetable growths, that occur occa- sionally in all surface waters, may render the water unattractive and unpalatable. At such times, and at other times when the supply is short, the water can be pumped from the new source. I believe that the water of Buckmaster Pond is perfectly safe from a sanitary standpoint. It may be, however, that after the consumers have used the well water for a time, the return to the use of the other supply will cause dissatisfaction and complaint, and an insistent demand that the supply be taken entirely from the well system. There is nothing to prevent doing this under Plan I. It would, however, increase the annual cost of fuel from $500 to $1,000, and, as respects annual expenses, very materially reduce the economic advantage which this plan has over Plan II. It would, however, under this condition, still be a less expensive plan.


If, as has been suggested as possible, the town should at some time install a municipal electric lighting plant, the machin- ery in Plan I could be adapted for driving by electricity, by simply installing a motor connected to the pump shaft, and, perhaps, in this way reduce the pumping expenses. There is but one real advantage which Plan II has over this, and that is in case of a very large fire covering several hours, in which the water in the stand pipe would be seriously lowered, a much larger amount of water could be pumped directly into the mains than with this plan. This objection to this plan is met by the fact that the Buckmaster Pond will, under either plan, be kept ready to run at all times, and can be started within an hour. In the meantime the reservoir or stand pipe will furnish sufficient water without serious loss of head, the pump at the wells supply- ing water for two fire streams.


Otherwise than this, Plan I will give as good service in every way as Plan II. If it is believed, however, that the water will all, or most of it, be taken from the new source, I am of


.

the opinion that the piping through Ellis avenue and Washing- ton street should be of the same size as recommended under Plan II. This will provide an ample pipe capacity for any additions which may be made to the plant, at an additional cost of $5,000, making a total cost of about $33,000.


I believe, it may fairly be said, that Plan I will furnish a satisfactory service entirely from the new source, if desirable, provide for the economic installment of any necessary additions to itself, as consumption increases, that within about ten years another pumping unit and more wells must be put in at a further cost of about $8,000 (the building will be built of proper size for the second pump), at a present cost of $33,000, and that Plan II will provide for all needs for the next twenty or twenty- five years, and at the end of that time can be increased by the addition of more wells, and perhaps a second pump to avoid the necessity of running more than ten hours per day, at a present cost of about $60,000.


When I say that I am inclined to advise the less expensive plan on the principle that, when there is reasonable doubt, it is better to adopt the plan involving the least expenditure, I have perhaps done all that an engineer can to aid you in your decision of a matter .in which other than engineering questions are in- volved.


As regards the high service improvements, either Plan IV or V will be satisfactory, but I recommend the plan with the steel stand pipe, on the ground of a lower expenditure and lack of experience with concrete structures of that type.


If Plan I and Plan IV are adopted, the total cost (exclusive of land and water damages), will be about $51,000, or, if the larger piping is laid, $56,000.


If Plan II and Plan IV are adopted, the total cost (exclusive of land and water damages), will be about $82,700.


Respectfully submitted,


FREEMAN C. COFFIN.
