CLARENCE IHKEN, 1242 Derry street CAPITOL HILL STATE WATER BOARD FIND 57 FAULTY DAMS IN 1914 Annual Beport of Commission Shows That Communities Are Well Sup plied—lnstall Twenty Steam Gaug ing Stations During the Year The actions of the State Water Sup iply Commission in 1914 arc shown in its report for that year, briefly classi fied: Four water companies were in corporated, one . merger was approved, and no water power charters were granted. The Commission thinks that the small number of water companies is due to the fact that communities arc well supplied. Permits were issued for the construction of 4 8 dams and the modification of 22 others. There are approximately 400 important dams in this State, of which 293 were exam ined during the year and 57 were found deficient in some detail. More applications for encroachments on streams were received during the year than for seven years previous, Dfil permits being issued, all of which cov ered work sanctioned by law, and the Commission invites protests from those who have reason to believe that the en croachments are not being carried out according to law. During the year twenty stream gaug ing stations were established, making 107 in all. The flood warning service has proved its value by timely and accurate warnings and will be contin ued. In the work of the constriction of the Pyatuming reservoir 2SI properties necessary to acquire have been sur veyed. It is suggested that the O'onmiasion be directed to determine and lay out, on plans.and on the ground, lines along river and stream banks t'hrongh con gested districts beyond which no en croachments wiJUiC permitted. A law should also be passt -1 for :lie removal of such existing encroachments that extend beyond the danger line, as they are a menace to life and property in time of floods.
