of the Washington Suburban SAM
tary Commission to Gaithersburg

nounced last night.

the two communities. which have

under study for some time. COM

When three of the two communi-
ties nine wells suddenly went dry
last week, the commission decided
to act Immediately on long stand
ing plans for extension of its water
mains.
The project, which Is expected to
be completed early next summer

will involve placing more than 10
miles of 16 and 12-inch pipe along
the Brookeville and Laytonsville
roads to Redland and finally to
Washington Grove where a connec-
ton will be made with the water
systems of the two towns.
The shortage in the past week
was attributed to a lack Of rainfall
during the summer.
Tank trucks were used to bring
water into the communities from a
hydrant in Garrett Park in an effort
to alleviate the shortage. At the
same time, water was pumped from
the remaining filled wells to the
| 150,000-gallon elevated storage tank

sure.
All residents have been warned
