3 October, 1967
My telegram No. 1435: Water.
RECEIVED IN ARCHIVES No. 63.
-3 OCT 1967
HILVA 18/02
Storage on 2 October 15,766 m.g. in Old Reservoirs, 10,852 in Plover Cove (salinity 1,250 p.p.m.).
2. When water from China started on 1 October, we reverted to 24 hour supply. We hope to maintain this through the dry season, using some Plover Cove water, diluted to not more than 600 p.p.m., so as to have 10,000 m.g. in Old Reservoirs at 1 May, 1968.
3. As supply position is no longer critical, I propose to discontinue this series of telegrams.
