Filtered Water to Start Next Month in Bristol Warren
About mid May the Bristol and Warren Water Works will begin delivering filtered water from the Warren filtration plant. The plant is nearly complete and could start by May 1, with a two week delay for the new stand pipe at Half Way Hill to boost pressure. Fifteen carloads of iron pipe will arrive to upgrade mains, including 16 inch piping on Bristol Neck to double flow. O H Tuttle, with 15 years of local plant experience, will serve as resident manager, overseeing both towns and the pumping and filtration plants.
