City Lake Now Has 100 Million Gallons Water
Bivins Lake, the citys municipal water reserve, holds about 100,000,000 gallons with 16 and a half feet still in the dam. City engineer Banks Jones says the supply could last a month in an emergency as the upper Palo Duro watershed drains and evaporation reduces the storage. Jones notes the water will seep back along the bank and creek bed. Health officer Dr. R M Walker reports the first half of August shows strong safety, with bacterial counts from 9 to 80 colonies per cubic centimeter and an average of 2. The city took over operation of the Word ranch plant earlier in August.
