With 28,000 feet of pipeline to maintain from the Franklin source, and with the line being very rid and unstable, maintenance is very costly. The pumps on Clear Creek are also costly to operate. The Hy Bair spring is shared with the Richmond Irrigation Compahy. During tin summer there are about 350 gallons of water per minute in the system and about 575 gallons in the winter months. The collector system there needs to be improved. Land has been purchased in the Cove area to build a reservoir which would have a 400,000 gallon capacity. This would store the overflow from Hy Bair spring and Clear Creek. It was also recommended that the city replace the 10 inch line with a 12 inch line from the Hy Bair source to Lewiston and replace one mile of line in southwest Lewiston. The total cost would be replaced in the city. The $335,000 allocated for the water project would not include the water meters. The meters would be installed without charge to the residents by using revenue sharing funds. An estimated cost of the meters would be approximately $50,000. To Project William H.
