Mr. Coolidge said the proposed new reservoir would would store three and one-half times more water then could possibly be stored in the other three reservoirs, or 210,000.. 000gallqne. it had been suggested, he said, that the dam at the Groups reser— voir be raised four feet, which would give an additional storage capacity of 30,000,000 gallons or e total of about 95,- 000,000, which is more then the bowie born reservoir will contain. A careful estimate showed that the dam could be raised at a cost of 315,000. Issac Selleck thought too much water run to waste. He suggested damning the overflow and putting in a gate.
