City Kngineer's He(Mirt.
EiiKcnue, Or., March 2S, 100S.
To the Hon. Mayor and the Common
Council of the Cityyif Eugene:
Oentletnen Pursuant to request I
submit the following statement of
the present water works system of
the city of Eugene.
An up-to-date water works s.tsteiu
such as the people of the city de
mand, should have pipes iargo
enough to furnish adequate fire pro
tection, with a pressure econcmical in
the consumption of power, and cost
of repairs, Jf a gravity system is em
ployed, also an abundant supply of
pure water for domestic and commer
cial purposes. The present plant Is
supplied with filters, which if provid
ed with coagulation tanks and the
proper settling basins, should diiliver
water to the consumer that is prac
tically free from bacteria and sedi
mentation. It is stated by good au
authorlty that In order for filters of
this type to be effective It Is neces
sary for 2 per cent of the water forc
ed through them to be used as a bark
flow In cleaning or washing the fil
ters, when the water Is free from sed
iment as are the waters of the Wil
lamette river during the summer
months. In time of freshets, when
the water is muddy or very turbid,
a back flow of 30 tier cent is re
quired to keep the filters clean and
allow them to do effective work.
Filtering without coagulation anil set
tling is not effective and does not
remove the impurities from the wa
ter. The filters, under the present
construction, could not be expected
to do effective work, and frequently
sedimentation is found in 1he wa
ter drawn from the service cocks, and
In time of freshets the water is so
badly discolored as to Indicate that
the fllti rs have not been used at. all,
and under present construction could
not be used.
Th cround or rather the situation
of the present plant is unfavorable to
the construction of settling and coag.
illation basins, if these were con
structed It would cost $15,000 and
necessitate the relocation of the
plant.
The cost of filtering water by the
use of mechanical filters Is variously
estimated In the different cities of
tl-j; 1'nl'ed States at from H.aO to J7
per million gallons. Striking an av-er.-'gn
of say per million gallons,
and estimating the city to use 1,00'v
uuo gallons per day, the cost . f Al
tering alone amounts to $li;j." ur
year. It is not probable t lint at tiie
pres. nt location ihe suction pipe
across tlie river tan be made to re
main uninjured ill the bed of the
stream, during the winter season,
tile gravelly bed of the river bang
constantly shitted by the current and
will undermine any const ruct:oi' of
pipe line across the river; heiic.Cy.e
oev available source of supply is the
i(v)r, and the present well is un
available. It seems to have been the
design of the engineer in placini; the
new reservoir on the highest point of
Skinner's btitte to get adequate fire
protection wiih the smallest diameter
of pities now in use in the present
system. This cau only be aeeem
plishod by an enormous inert ase of
Iriction in the pities to get the in
creased velocity onflow necessar.l to
sue the city goiM fire protection.
When such high pressure is ti.-cd a:
the expense of pumps and the in
creased cost of power or the grea'er
expense of high pressure pipe, in a
gravity system, tbe oene is too
great to be squandered on friction in
ttie pipes, and such frlctloiuil loss
entails a daily expense as long as the
system is in use. the extra expense
will in a coinpnrattvly shori time pay
for larger pipes and the cost of a low
er reservoir, it is poor economy to
continue the use of so huh a pros
sure system, not to reckon the cost
for repairs. If the present Intentions
of the city are carried out and a grav
ity system put in, Ihe extra cost of
pipe for so high a pressure would ex
ceed the cost of the present reser
voirs and tlie cost of repairs would
be correspondingly greater. 'With a
pressure such as could lie maintained
economically in n gravity system the
f.l the city could put in a new and
up-'o-date i:-avi! svstem.
