Stonewall Project Advances with Large Pipe and Chlorine Plan

The Oklahoma California venture aims to fully own the stations with Lock Joint Pipe sections 20 feet long and five feet in diameter, weighing 12 tons each. Area superintendent J G Thompson says progress is being made as a $5 ton rig handles the concrete steel pipe. Stations will daily inject chlorine to curb fungal growth during the water transfer from Ataka to Oklahoma City, with final chlorination at the reservoir after filtration. Pump stations employ about 28 workers daily with two 35 ton cranes, two front end loaders, two dozers, trucks and many Rit machines.
