Million-Gallon Reservoir Constructed by Boys of the Industrial School
A 1,000,000 gallon reservoir, built by the State Industrial School boys under supervision, nears completion. The 10,000-foot supply line will deliver water for fire protection and irrigation. The project, designed by Dr. Fortry and supervised by W. Windarr and ex-city engineer Parker, uses no forms and rests on solid concrete to create a watertight tank. Located near North Ogden Canyon, the structure will yield a 200-foot fall to the school, with a four-foot-deep trench to prevent freezing. The project cost about $1,500 in materials, and the boys’ work is praised as both professional and patriotic.
