Numerous

measures were taken to augment the regular supplies, among them the drawing of 19.19 million gallons of water from the Taikoo Refinery supply, which was connected with the Government main at North Point; 40 million gallons were transported from Laichikok to tanks on Praya by water boats; 13.09 million

Approximately half of the tanke were supplied with water from Lai Chi Kok and Trun Wan and the re- mainder with imported supplies.

straction of a channel approxi mately 4.500 feet in length at Tytam Tuk.
