Engineer Files on
the Surplus Water

Acting under the authority OF a
special meeting OF the directors of
the Montpelier Irrigation Co.. Engi-
peer Robert G. Harding has forward
bd filings upon the unappropriated
waters OF Montpelier Creek. to the
Department of Reclamation at Boise.
This filing puts into action the plan
of the Montpelier Irrigation company
and the City of Montpelier to secure
an adequate water supply for both
irrigation and domestic use.
The plan contemplates the storage
OF all surplus water OF Montpelier
Greek in a large reservoir In Mont
pelier canyon. This will add more
than an adequate supply for the city
inasmuch as a reservoir of adequate
size will not only clarity the water
by proper sedimentation but win re-
move most of the contamination
which now finds its way into our
city mains.
Engineer Harding states that there
is no reason why Montpelier should
not have a water supply as clear and
pure as Salt Lake City and others
Of the intermountain cities.
The people of Bennington are in
terested In the irrigation project be-
ing Investigated in connection with
the Montpelier canyon reservoir
Bennington is situated so that water
can easily be diverted to the lands
in that vicinity by the building OF q
canal. Engineer Harding attended
meeting OF Bennington farmers
early In the week at which the Mont.
pelier canyon project was fully ex-
planned, and doubtless much support
of the project will be Forthcoming
from the farmers OF that district.
