No Fees Paid for Billion Gallons By Cedar Rapids Water
Cedar Rapids faces major water losses as 16.72 percent of 5.78 billion gallons pumped in 1969 went unaccounted for. Officials plan meters on fire lines to curb unmetered use by leaks and intentional tapping. Other Iowa cities show lower unaccounted shares, while Davenport reports similar concerns over metering.
