Amarillo city commissioners wrestled with the sewage disposal plant as their main problem. Idaho irrigationist John Evans proposed a 20 year contract costing about 17 000, but the panel, led by Mayor Bivins and Commissioner Harris, rejected the idea. Kansas City engineer Wyncoop Kiersted urged treatment to meet legal standards before discharging water into Amarillo creek.
