District to install water meters for private residences
Congress appropriated 100000 for meter introduction to supply about 4000 meters at no charge to consumers. Costs total around 34 per meter including installation, with repayment via increased water rates to begin July 1. Installation starts near Tennadytown, progressing toward the city, with plans for further expansion and an additional 409000 needed. Typhoid cases rise in the District with 28 new cases in six days, prompting boil-water advisories for those unable to buy spring water. There are 85 current typhoid patients, nearly double last year's level at this time.
