The above figures include the cost of buildings but not land.
The cost of pumping would be about $1.00 per 1,000 gallons, exclusive of sinking lund, depreciation, interest on capital and general administration charges..
The estimate is based for couvenience on the existing Peak Distribution System which consists of W.J. pipes which are not so suitable as C.I. pipes for salt water.
