Mr. Powell. I am not speaking about your intake of water and the filtration; I am speaking about connecting with the sewers.

Mr. Tate. Of course if you treat the sewage, you would have to have two separate plants.

Mr. Powell. Yes; but you would have only one place where the sewage debauched into the river.

Mr. Tate. I think we would have to have two—one on the west and one on the east side.

Mr. Powell. Well, it would not be very expensive to make these intercepting sewers, would it?

Mr. Tate. I rather think it would be quite expensive.

Mr. Powell. There is nothing in the character of the soil that would make it expensive.

Mr. Tate. No; there is nothing in the character of the soil that would do so.

Mr. Powell. How far from the edge of the river do your sewers discharge?

Mr. Tate. Generally right at the face of the bank.
