6 The Sfaneiman. Salem, Oregon. Tuesday. September 28. 1943 2 Types Dams Considered At Silverton SILVERTON Building of a new diversion dam for the Silverton water department is under con sideration of the city council and city manager with study at both the dam site and the city hall oc cupying much time of the council members in recent days. Some de finite conclusions are expected with announcement to be made at the October 4 meeting. Whether there will be time to get the meas ure, should the council favor it, on the November ballot is a question, members state. Under consideration are two types of dams, a log dam and a concrete structure. Either dam would replace the log dam which went out in the winter of 1942. Since that time a pumping system, which has proved unsatisfactory both from the standpoint of the consumers and of the city employ es, has been in use. The old log dam lasted for '25 years and this type is favored by some members of the council. Oth ers feel that the longer - lasting concrete dam would prove more satisfactory. The log dam. which would be placed at approximately the exact location of the old dam, could be done at a cost of about $15,000. If the council recommends a concrete dam. indications, are that this will be built about 3600 feet above the former location and the cost, including the extra pipe, would give 40 feet more head above the 60 feet head at the old location. Also being discussed Is the re placement of 13.000 feet of 12-inch pipe with 14-inch wood pipe to i bring the 14-inch line Into town from its present location along the Abiqua.
