RRARCH OF Chica v WATER POWER WASTED DAILY IN POTOMAC VALUED AT $3,000 Dr. Phillips Sees Wonderful Hydro-Elec- trical Possibilities Benefit City The power that is now going to waste daily In the Potomac current is worth $3,000, and if properly har- neased, it would save the use of 25 000 tons of coal yearly, according to Dr. Willlam H. H. Phillips of 1424 Euclid street. who in = letter to The Star discusses the potentialities of hydro-electric power for the Dis- trict of Columbia. Declaring that the city of Wash- ington is favored above most cities of the world in having an abundant supply of good water, Dr. Phillips presents statistics that show the amount of water carried through the District of Columbia daily to be from 604 000 to 84,000,000.000 galions of The maximum amount required by the (;lzt:“ully during the yoar 1920 Wi be required in !50 s 129,000,000 ‘tl— lons. The average amount used daily during 1920 was 71,000,000 g: lons, and Dr. Phillips adds, “N source other the Potomac is needed for our water supply, but th Patuxent river has been considered. Hydro-Electric Facilities. Discussing the facilities available for Nydro-electric power for the city, Dr. Williams' letter says: “The fall of the Potomac river within ten miles upstream to the limits of the city is 150 feet. A sub- stantial dam fourteen feet high holds the water at the highest point. Not only do the river furnish an #bundant supply during the dryest seasons, but the fall of 150 feet prop- erly harnessed would produce 100.000 horuapower for light and power. In 1837 it is estimated that the maxi- mum demand for electricity by the city will be 26.000 kilowatts between the hours of 3 and 6 p.m. This will require only 47,000 horsepower, ai- lowing for loss of transmission and generation. “The 100,000 horsepower is more than the city and the United States government would need for light and powi but the excess above imme- diate demands could be sold to cu tomers within & radius of ten miles. The prices charged at central sta- tions generating electricity the United States and Canada varies from 318.00 to $29.50 per horsepower, and none have an overproduction that cannot be sold. Lake Washington Plan. “Many plans to furnish a water supply for the city and power to gen- erate electricity for light. heat, run- ning trolley cars and factories have been proposed. one alm. uni- versally favored is called the Lake “Washington plan, reported by the Corps of Engineers of the United Here That Would and -Nation. States Army. This plan requires the bullding of a dam across the Potomas river near the western boundary of the District of Columbia. and would be 1,200 feet long and 115 feet B This dam would form a lake covi 3.000 acres, and would be named Lake Washington. It would leave unused about thirty-four feet of fall from the crest of aqueduct dam above Great Falls. This could be used. If harnessed, withopt interfering with the 115-foot dam rbove described. “Our estimated cost of harnessing the thirty-four-feet fall is compara- tively slight. The cost of 115-foot n would be approximately $15,021.- 00, which would inciude the cost of the land and damage to the canal and railroad track that wbuld be covered by the lake. The power from the dam would simply be generated and trans- mitted to the electric centers already established and operating in the city. Would Pay for Itseif. “But it would furnish a safe and isure water supply capable of inde nite expansion &3 nceded at small cost and a power plant that from the saving effected would return its cost within a reasonable period and provide interest at % per cent. Th plan will no doubt be adopted in time, but its great cost and the time required to bulld such dam will prob- ably delay .its execution. In meantime the parallel conduit from Great Falls to the Dalecarlia reser- oir is ifkely to be built to secure & Ke_Supply of water for the city. What is needed now is to conmect the aqueduct dam fall of fourteen feet end the fall of twenty feet with- in 3,000 feet belpw the dam by a fenstock tunnel and make a fall of at _least thirty-four feet, reserving sufficient water for the canal and for the supply that would be carried down in the conduits to Deiecarlia reservoir. Such a power is too valu- able to remain unused. It would moon repay its first cost and be a valuable asset to the city Too Valuable teo Sell. “The nation cannot afford to let so valuable a property. so well lo- cated. remain unused and burn thou- sands of tons of coal to do the work. It would be a paying investment even If plan No. 3 were to be com- pleted in a few years. Private busi- ness men would giadly pay a large vrice for the right to use the water but the United States gov- :rnment or the city cannot afford to t any price. “The plan to use the thirty-four foot fall will in no way. as we have stated, Interfere with the plan to the 115 feet. No project has yet been recommended that will use the have here proposed. The su[‘enlonl here made have been indorsed by able engineers and by men who have had a Jarge experience in this line of work.
