Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the work of a commission charged with assessing the need for a new water supply for New York City at the beginning of the twentieth century. In response, the text includes extensive investigations into the current state of the city's water system at the turn of the century and the probable future needs of New York's growing population. The author provides a comprehensive exploration of both the quantity and quality of water available from nearby sources, and the construction methods required to deliver the water to the city. The author also presents the findings of biological and chemical analyses of the different watersheds considered. This detailed exploration of New York's water supply sets a model for similar projects around the world and provides valuable historical context for the present day challenges associated with delivering clean water to densely populated metropolitan areas.
