A good public water supply is never news—ex- cept on the rare occasion when something goes wrong. Many people not living in the upper part of Juneau are not familiar with the service rendered by the Neclson Water Company. i This concern supplies water to a {good portion of the residential dis- Itrict from Starr Hill to Main |Street along Fifth and Sixth | Streets, also providing fire pro- tection in the Starr Hill District. The water supply is from the Northern slopes of Mount Roberts, where the water emerges from springs and talus slopes in an 'area of about bne-half mile square. Most of this watershed is above timber line, some in perpetual ice fields. Before entering the tanks for distribution, the water is lowed to percolate through a nat- ural filter of several hundred feet of gravel, which makes it clear, jand purc, eliminating any need 'for chemical treatment. | During the past ten or twelve years extensive replacements and betterments have Leen accomplish- ed in the city and at the source of the water supply, making the system trouble-proof, which was jevidenced during the past severe |winter when the water flowed con-| :nuuou‘ly to all customers. | | Maps of all piping of the sys-| ,tem were submitted to the ap- praisers Black and Veatch Company | (when they appraised the Juneau; iUulities in 1945, These maps showed that the greater portion of |zhe Nelson System mains and piping had been renewed and re- placed in the last twelve years and that almost every service con- nection had been gone over, re- renewed, or checked. This work has smoothed operations and has greatly eliminated trouble and in- terruptions in service to the pub- lic. | EUGENE NELSON, Manager, Nelson Water Co.
