P.W.R. Hong Kong.

The total quantity of water supplied during the year amounted to 3446.28 million gallons (which includes 638.62 million gallons from the mainland) filtered, and 41.84 million gallons unfiltered, making a grand total of 3488.12 million gallons or 1286.65 million gallons more than during 1929.

The average consumption of filtered water per head per day for all purposes throughout the year was about 21.3 gallons. In arriving at this figure the population has been estimated at 443,740. Full details of consumption etc., will be found in Annexes C and D.

The analyses made by the Government Analyst show that the water was of good quality throughout the year, whilst the results obtained by bacteriological examination were satisfactory.

The quantity of water pumped to the High Level Districts of the City was 145.87 million gallons, equal to an average daily consumption of about 399,000 gallons whilst 65.68 million gallons were pumped to the Peak District, giving an average daily consumption of 180,000 gallons.

As compared with 1929 there was an increase of 18.19 million gallons pumped to the High Level District and an increase of 9.10 million gallons pumped to the Peak District.

The grand total pumped during the year to the High Level and Peak District amounted to 211.55 million gallons as compared with 182.39 million gallons in 1929, an increase of 27.29 million gallons (corrected from the original: 209.68 to match the sum of 145.87 + 65.68). Tabulated statements containing particulars of the quantities of water pumped to the High Levels of the City and to the Peak District respectively will be found in Annex: E.

The Turbines and Pumping Plant at Bowen Road, referred to in paragraph No. 140 of this Report was brought into operation in August and has resulted in a considerable saving of coal at the Pokfulam Road Pumping Station.
