Tests on six samples from Fourth Street and Sixth Avenue show the clay pipe fails the 15-pound seepage standard in the city contract with Thomas J. Shea. City Engineer J Mos Ruthrauff admits the pipe is poorly glazed and would not meet the specification, while City Manager Clarke defends the pipe as satisfactory under the 3-pound pressure limit. The issue primes a council discussion next Monday with concerns over payment and taxpayer value.
