Los Angeles, May 1» 1941* R -070-42 Mr. % r o a S. DoUt When X last saw you X discussed with you the matter of two addi­tional shallow wells to augment the supply of water required for this sum­merT a peak. At that time X suggested an extension of the present proposal to include a power line tram, our own power house to the present well area in order that pumping power when needed will he available from Union Pacific souroes rather than purchases, I suggest that your previous memo on this subject he enlarged to include estimates covering the surface fittings, connection to existing col­lecting lines, power line above mentioned from U.P. power house, remote re­cording float gauge on reservoir, which we discussed, with recording gauge in office, together with cost of circuit, etc., also pumping equipment for wells, to be installed if adequate flowing volume Is not obtained. Please also include weoorSwi^l^taClons for these two wells. We will complete the figures here on drilling of the wells from bids which we will obtain locally. X will appreciate having this information as soon as possible* cq - Mr* W. S. Bracken PS---- “ ftu Reinhardt
