for the people to get just little bit worked up about the

There is no doubt about it. Our present water supply

quantity needed. The of it is that the water table
seems to keep dropping, from year to the next.
What the best soution Engineers say the best sou

run 1t through filtration plant The intake would be above
where the Little Youghogheny river empties All tests show
there is very little pollution in the river but the very
thought of using the water is extremely dstastefu to many
people Snowy creek is of the streams that feeds the
