Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the findings of General H.M. Chittenden and A.O Powell, who provided a detailed report on the water supply systems servicing the city of San Francisco, California. The report analyzes the city's rapidly growing population and water consumption to determine if the current systems are meeting the current and future needs of the city's residents. Chittenden and Powell provide a forecast of the population growth to 1950 and project future water consumption within San Francisco and the greater Bay area, concluding that the Spring Valley Water Company's system will be sufficient to meet these growing needs. The authors provide extensive data to demonstrate that the Spring Valley system is already capable of delivering over 200 million gallons daily, with the capacity to increase that supply indefinitely. In addition, the report raises awareness of the need for responsible water management, especially given the expected rise in usage. Chittenden and Powell advocate for diverse water sources and infrastructure development to ensure that San Francisco and its surrounding cities can continue to provide clean, safe water for its citizens.
