Sewage Workers
Ask For More Data
COLLEG STATION, T e x a s,
March—(Spl)—The Texas Water
and ScAvage Works Association to
day recommended that “all state
and federal agencies dealing Avith
water supply development make
available to the Water Research
and Information Center at Texas
A&M College, all data of public
interest which would be useful in
Avater facilities on a community or
regional basis.”
The Association, meeting at Tex
as A&M College, with more than
700 members attending, delegated
four of its members to submit re
commendations on the development
of future water supplies. Submit
ting the report which the As
sociation adopted, were R. U. An
drews, chairman, sewer engineer
for the City of Fort Worth; R. J.
Hennon, water superintendent,
Port Neches; EdAvarcl Geeslin,
water superintendent, Brady and
W. L. P e t i t, superintendent,
Weslaco.
The recommendations include,
“that the development of reservoirs,
treatment plans and treated or
raw water supply mains on a
multi-city basis be encouraged,
especially when financing of such
projects by single municipalities
would jeopardize their overall fi-
nanci^ status;
“That further consideration be
given to legislative action establish
ing a revolving fund for long term
loans to municipalities for provid
ing needed works, if bonds can
not be sold by normal procedures.
“That every regional association
encourage all participating muni
cipalities and water districts to
maintain records of water pro
duction, consumption and losses or

waste. Also that vigilant control
be exercised to keep fully aware of
declining groundwater tables and
diminishing raw surface water re
serves.
“That existing River Authority
boundaries be expanded, of con
ditions warrant such expansion and
other authorities created to faci
litate coordination of water and
soil conservation programs — that
the river tuthorities be given the
specific power to establish rules
and regulations covering stream
pollution abatement and also em
powered to initiate legal action to
enforce them so that the quality of
the water to be put to beneficial
use will not be impared—also that
perhaps closer coordination of
water development projects for the
area should be under taken by in
dividuals, industries, municipalities
and water districts in order that an
integrated water plan of the area
might be developed.
“That projects covering the re
charge of underground water
strata and reservoirs without dan
ger of contaminating the existing
reserves also be undertaken*
wherever applicabel, to secure tem
porary relief and also to replenish
these underground reserves for
future use, especially should sur
face sources be depleted during
future periods of drouth.
“That in areas where applicable,
treated domestic and industrial
wastes be put to beneficial use as
a water conservation measure and
also to reduce pollutional loads on
our water courses.
“That all state and federal
agencies dealing with water supply
development make available to the
Water Research and Information
Center, Texas A&M College, all
data of public interest which Avould
be useful in water facilities on a
community or regional basis.
“That the activities and view
points of the Water Pollution Ad
visory Council be coordinated with
those of the Water Resources com
mittee in formulating future state
policies concerning control and
abatement of stream pollution.
Water quality controls and develop
ment of projects for water quanity
must be integrated to provide a
practical plan of water supply de
velopment.”
