considered as an alternate site, would increase the cost by approximately
$35,000 due to additional pipe required. Mr. Teague further stated, the

would be more suitable. The engineer statèd that the College of st. Ben-
edicts' Engineer Miller had also agreed to the suitability of the original

the nuisance now present would be eliminated in time.
