Show 2nd Leeton Well Tests 330 GaSJcis A favorable production rate of 380 gallons a minute was registered Thursday morning, July 20, in the final test of the second Leeton water well, according ac-cording to Ren Johnstun, water -master. A 21 hour tost was started Wednesday after -time out had., been taken earlier in the week to get the pipe perforated. An expected higher production rate through perforated pipe was borne out by the final test. Mayor Homer P. Edwards, when asked to comment, said that with the completion of tests on the second well, he did not know what steps the city council coun-cil would take next in its quest for water. He said it was probable prob-able another well would be drilled in the Leeton vicinity, which, combined with the other two, should be sufficient to handle the city's needs. |
