THE WATER SUPPLY
Major Knight's Report on Testing
the Tunnel Conduit.
L01 STATE OF THE WATER
Repairs That Were Made to the
Conduit.
REMOVING DEPOSITS
Maj. Knight, the engineer officer in
charge of the water supply service of the
District of Columbia, has made an inter
esting report to the chief of engineers of
preliminary operations for testing the tun
nel conduit between the distributing reser
voir and the Howard University reservoir
and for increasing the water supply of the
city. i
The probable operations this month, Maj. !
Knight says, include pumping out the tun
nel conduit between the distributing reser
voir and the Howard University reservoir,
closing the four easterly shafts and filling
the tunnel with water. The work of pump
ing out and cleaning deposits at the Rock
creek and Foundry branch shafts has been
completed and preparations have been made
for closing the I^ock creek shaft. On the
24th ultimo Maj. Knight inspected that
portion of the tunnel between the water in
Champlain avenue heading west and Foun
dry branch shaft, a distance of about
0.1(H) feet. v
Measurement*? have been made over this
section of the tunnel on which to base
estimates of cost of completion and by
which to determine if any falling of rock
results after the tunnel is subjected to
pressure and the pressure is removed. A
boiler and pump have been set in operation
at the east shaft. and proposals invited for I
erecting a standpipe, 33 feet high, on the
curb of this shaft, it lacing proposed to
keep the shafc open.
The quarrying of stone was continued
under the project for increasing the water
supply of the city by raising the height of
the body of the dam at Great Falls two
and one-half feet and resetting the cop
ing stones.
On the 127th ultimo the Secretary of War
approved the location of the Washington
and Gre?.t Falls electric railway over and
across United States lands and accessory
works of the aqueduct, subject to certain
conditions and regulations in accordance
with the provisions of the act incorporat- I
ing the company, approved August 23, 181)4.
L?w State of tlic Wafer Supply.
In a special chapter in regard to the
present low state of the water supply,
MajcK Knight says:.
"During the work of improving the Dale
carlia reservoir the distributing reservoir
alone is available for storage purposes. Its
capacity is about 151.000,000 gallons when
the water stands at reference, 1 M> feet. It
is desirable that the water be kept to ref
erence, 140 feet, but for only four days
was the reference 145 reached or passed,
and for sixteen days the water stood below
144. When the supply was stopped May
10. so that the conduit might be cleaned,
the v\ater stood at 144.45. It then fell to
141, and notwithstanding .1)5 of an inch
rainfall in the meanwhile, it did not rise
more than 2.05 feet in seven days. At this
height it- stood for three days, then fell J
ore foot in four days, standing at 142.05 j
on the morning of May 31. At this refer
ence the amount stored is estimated at j
104.000,<M)0 gallons, or little more than the \
daily consumption of the city for two days, j
The reference of the bottom of this reser- I
voir is 135 feet; the level at which it is
desirable to maintain the water is 14G feet, j
as before stated. The above statement in
dicates how Email is the present reservoir
water supply cf the city.
' As ths level of the water in the dis
tributing reservoir, when the 48-inch main
was first put in service was between 145
and 140 only, the above also demonstrates
that any lowering of the level of the wa
ter service in houses by more than from
three to five feet below such level in July,
lSS>t?. is not to be attributed to the low
condition of the water in the reservoir.
Kcpntrti to the Condnit.
"The conduit was partially emptied May
31, and repairs made to the floor of the
south cjnntction at the Dalecarlla reservoir.
The paving of this floor had become loose
and water escaped under it and the in
t erst tees into the reservoir. This reservoir
not being in service the water was wasted.
The paving was removed and concrete in
mass placed for a width and depth of about
three feet across the bottom of the open
ing for stop planks, the lower stop plank
being eml>edded in the concrete and thus
serving as a sill. This occasion was also
utilized .to remove deposits of brick and
mortar In the Influent gate house of tne
receiving reservoir. During the suspension
of pupplv. which iasted twenty-two hours,
the water in the distributing reservoir fell
from the level. 143, to 130.18. The conduit
was also partially emptied May 1U, at
which time I inspected the bl-condult at
the Dalecarlla reservoir, and also caused
its line to be instrumentally located and
its length measured. A heavy deposit of
about eight to ten inches of mud was found
in that section of the bi-conduit below the
eight-foot tunnel, where the diameter is
enlarged to nine fe6t."
Removing; Deposits.
The approved project for removing de
pesits from the conduit. Maj. Knight says,
necessitates the emptying of the conduit,
and. considering the level of water in the
distributing reservoir, it was attempted but
once during the month, on the lfith. Six
teen men were set to work loosening and
breaking up the deposit on the bottom and
sides of the conduit just above the noi-.h
connection of the Dalecarlla reservoir.
They earned this work a distance of
feet to it point WW feet above manhole el.
In tunnel No. 4 on this section the deposit
was reported to have been at>out three
feet deep for a length of lot) feet, and for
about r>tH> feet above the gales of waste
weir No. 2 tbere was nowhere more h 111
from three to four inches, some places be
ing clean. Above this the deposit averaged
lrpm eight to ten Inches.
Anotlu-r force of men loosened deposits
for a distance ?f about 3,00" feet, working
up to a point about 150 feet south of 'he
ventilators near the distributing reservoir.
The heaviest deposit found was from four
to ten Inches. Though the loosening pro
cess is followed by sluicing for about six
hours, Maj. Knight says it Is found that
the removal of the loosened deposit is not
ctmplete at the longer distances from the
waste weir gates. In the section of the
conduit above the Dalecarlla reservoir,
which, between waste weir gates. Is about
nine miles long, it may become necessary
to remove the deposits by taking therti to
and out of .the different manholes.
Kleetric wires were attached to the iron
work of the Hock Creek bridge without
proper authority. Maj. Knight notified the
offending company, and they were prompt
ly removed.
During this month it is proposed to com
plete the project for making four addition
al weir openings at waste weir No. 1, near
Great Fails, and carrying the end walls up
to reference 155.5.
