The threatened drought in Orem this summer prompted the meeting of the Orem Met ropolitan Water Board with the Orem City Council Monday night. John Gillman, water board chairman, told the Council Coun-cil his group recommends the immediate development of its recently-drilled well in the northwest part of town to alleviate al-leviate Orem's critical water situation. The City Council had pre viously let a contract to Fuh-riman, Fuh-riman, Hodson and Rollins, consulting engineers, for re signing and drawing up specifi cations for a large water main from the city's one-million gailon reservoir to 800 North. Mr. Gillman said even with the recently acquired irrigat ion water stock by the Metropolitan Metro-politan Water Board, it is unlikely un-likely that sufficient water will be available from canyon spring sources to justify con struction of this water main this year. "If we are to keep Orem green this year it is necessary to bring the new city well into production before summer," Mr. Gillman said. Orrin T. Miller, new city en gineer, suggested that the Council reconsider its recent action in abandoning a city at 800 North Mai Street. He recommended the employment of a well expert to assay the well at 800 No. Main Street. He economically brought into pro duction again. The Council voted unanim ously to accept Wis recommendation recom-mendation and try to salvage the well which has been cap able of producing up to two second-feet of water.
