Pokfulam Reservoir has been forcibly expressed. At present during the rainy season, when the largest supply of water should be obtainable, no more is delivered into the city from the Pokfulam works than is procurable during the dry period. This arises through the main pipe of 10 inches diameter being too small for the service required.
It is now proposed by W. Price to lay down a conduit along the 500 foot contour from the Pokfulam storage basin to the highest Tanks in the city, which are situate above the Government Gardens. An estimate of this work has been carefully prepared, and the cost is stated to be £9278.12.0.
The Executive Council, aided by the two unofficial Members of Council now in the Colony, Messrs Reswick, has fully considered this portion of the proposed works for improving Water Supply, and I beg to report to your Lordship.
