May Survey Water Lines For Leaks In Frederick
Mayor John A. Derr authorized by the Board of Aldermen to secure prices on a survey of city water mains from Fishing Creek and Linganore to detect leaks and assess cleaning costs as part of a plan to conserve dwindling supply. Engineers estimate up to 20 percent of water is lost before delivery, while a house to house canvass may reveal unreported fixtures and revenue losses. The board weighs long term metering and repairs like an old stone dam on Linganore Creek, and will pursue delinquent rent collection with service termination for nonpayment.
