Thurmont New Reservoir Doubles Water Capacity Report
Thurmont officials report the new High Rum reservoir reached about 100 million gallons in the period July 16 to February 4. The system, with two wells and an old emergency reservoir, serves roughly 300 to 608 consumers and faced peak summer demand with two pumps. The town bought the water system March 1, 1958, for $87,000 from the Mechamictions Water Company.
