Water supply analysis shows clean quality after new mains laid
The report details the city water system with new thirty inch mains and a completed pump house. Over 1889 sanitary analyses were performed, mainly in December, with overall excellent indicators of chlorine and ammonia within limits. Occasional muddy periods tied to fire alarms, dredging, and sediment disturbance from new iron pipe treatments were noted, while air supersaturation caused a brief milky appearance. The Board of Health and several doctors affirmed the public supply’s excellence.
