Las Yegas - February 23, 1948 W 23-1 Mr. Frank Strongs It has been our practice when service line* deteriorate, to replace them in kind, that is; with 3/4* galvanised pipe. However, now that most of the alleys in the business district are paved, this is becoming expen­sive due to cost of replacing the oil bound surface. Would like to have your approval to substitute 3/4* copper pipe instead of galvanised when renewals are necessary in the business district. This would amount to between 20 and 30 services per year, each 10 feet long and the material cost, compared to galvanized would be* The life of the galvanized, in *hot soil* is about 5 years the copper will last about 20 years. 3/4* galvanized 3/4" Copper .1397 Ft, .2765 Ft, A.
