Cowlyd Water Board. WATER WASTE AND WATER SERVICE. A meeting of the Cowlyd Board was held on Friday in the Council Chamber, Colwyn Bay, Mr. Hugh Owen, J.P., presiding. The follow- ing members were also pres.ent :Dr. Prichard, J.P., Messrs. David Gamble, J.P., Hugh Hughes, Joseph Dicken, John Williams, J.P., Edward Roberts, Rev. William Phillips, J. E. Conway- jones, and Thomas Williams; with the Clerk (Mr. T. E. Parry), the Engineer (Mr. T. B. Farrington), and the other officials. THE WASTE OF WATER. The Engineer reported that a meeting of the Committee appointed by the Board to confer with the Engineers of the Constituent Author- ities with regard to the waste of water in the various districts met at the Municipal Offices, Conway on Friday, the 29th July, when there were present Mr. H. Owen, in the chair, Messrs D. Gamble, J. Dioken, J. E. Conway-Jones, Rev. W. Phillips,, the Clerk, the Engineer, and Mr. William Jones, Colwyn Bay; Mr. Dela- motte, Conway; and Mr. Levi John, Conway Rural District Council At the request of the Chairman, the Engin- eer stated that the object of the meeting was to consider the question of the excessive quantity of water now being supplied to the district, viz., 50 gallons per head per day, that this quantity was about double the usual sup- ply for similar places, and that unless some- thing was done to reduce the amount the Joint Board would have to face a large capital ex- penditure to increase the storage at Cowlyd Cake. lie suggested that each of the authori- ties should be to undertake a system- atic inspection oi their district by means of the Deacon waste water system, and explain- ed how this was done. Mr William Jones, Colwyn Bay, stated that his authority were doing all they could to re- duce waste, that night inspections were made, and that about 40 cases of leakage, &c., were discovered and attended to per month, but in spite of this there was no difference in the flow of water during the night as registered by the night line of the Deacon meter. He question- ed the accuracy of the meter, and suggested that owing to the increased pressure it regis- tered excessively as compared with a lower pressure. Mr. Delamotte, Conway, stated that he had no leakages in his district,' and that the De- ganwy meter rsgistered N,,tter supplied outside his district, namely, Gloddaeth, but he had no record of this he also agreed with the sugges- tion of Mr. William Jones that the meters were registering more than they ought to do. Mr. Levi John, Conway Rural, said that he had constant leakages in his district, which were attended to as soon as possible, but as soon as one was repaired another broke out owing to excessive pressure. There was a general discussion, and a ques- tion of reducing the head at Dolgarrog was suggested. It was pointed out that the highest parts of the district, viz., Penrhyn and Llys. faen, were at the extreme ends, and any reduc- tion in pressure would affect them. It was ultimatsly resolved that the Engineer's suggestion to have a systematic inspection be adopted, and that he send to the Surveyor of each authority a report upon the meters, &c., and an approximate estimate of the cost of carrying out such a system of inspection, and that each representative present at the meeting would urge upon his Council the importance of carrying out such a system The Engineer suggested that the constituent authorities should each appoint temporarily, say two or three waste water inspectors for a systematic inspection of the district by a Deacon meter. It was decided to act upon Mr. Farrington's suggestion, and ask the authorities to appoint inspectors. A discussion ensued upon the leakage of water in the Colwyn Bay district, and it was decided to send a copy of Inspector Lloyd's re- port as to a test made of each of the districts to the authorities, and asking them to act upon the suggestions therein contained. Rev. W. Phillips asked the Clerk the ques- tion whether if the authorities refused to act in the matter, could the Board do the work itself and charge the same to the said author- ities. The Clerk It has been done before. WATER SERVICES. A discussion took place upon the action of the Conway Rural District Council respecting the water service supply. Dr. Prichard said he was of opinion that the Conway Council was treating the people who wanted the service very unkindly indeed. The Engineer stated that a letter was sent to the Council respecting the matter in Feb- ruary last, but no reply had been received to that. It was important that they should have a reply to that letter, so that they could con- sider the, matter as a whole. He suggested that he write to the Council asking for a re- ply to that particular letter, and then they could come to a decision. It was decided to act on the Engineer's sug- gestion. COWLYD LEFT. The Engineer reported that the Aluminium Corporation had row commenced the construc- tion of the intake to the leet frora the Cowlyd Stream, and that he had arranged with the ( ompany to protect with concrete the Cowlyd pipes which pass under the leet

LI. Richards, Messrs. LI. G. Jones, W. Evans, Matthew Roberts, D. G. Jones, and R. T. Ellis, together with T. Hughes (Clerk), H. P. Evans (Surveyor), and R. E. Thomas (Rate Collector). BYE-LAWS WANTED. On the motion of Mr. LI. G. Jones, seconded by the Rev. Henry Jones, it was decided to adopt new bye-laws, and the Clerk was in- structed to adopt the usual course by sending to the Local Government Board for a copy of the Model Bve-Laws. TANYBENNAR ROAD, DOLWYDDELEN. The Clerk reported that in accordance with the resolution of the Council at the previous meet- ing, he had examined the minutes relative to the Tanybennar-road. He found that at the meeting of the Council held on Mav 8th, 1906, a letter was read from the Dolwvddelen Parish Council urging upon the Council to take up the road but no action was taken. On June 6th, 1906. however, two members were appointed as delegates to inspect the road, who, at the following meeting reported that it was an ac- commodation road for the convenience of a few houses, and as it did not lead to anywhere else, they could not recommend its adoption by the Council as a highway repairable by them. The Rev. J. 1.1. Richards formally moved that the road be taken over bv the Council, and Mr. W. Evans seconded. Mr. D. G. Jones moved an amendment, that it be left as it is at present. Mr. Matthew Roberts seconded. On being put to the meeting, the amendment was carried. ESTIMATES. INCREASED RATES. The Clerk submitted rhe following estimate of expenditure for the six months endin" March 31st, 1911. Highway charges, fA 16; officials' salaries. /90 establishment charges, 170: balance re- serve fund, 250 making a total of' £ 826. Out of this, however, would be deducted the follow- ing amounts :Grant under the Agricultural Rate Act, £ 40 ditto officials' salaries, /43 balance in hand, £ 216 making a total of /279 leaving (547 to be procured from theate", which would require a rate of ild. in the (, or an increase of 2}d. over the previous six months. The lowering of the assessment of the Railway Company at Maenan and Abbey, and the ex- pense attached to the recent sickness at Dol- wvddelen was largely responsible for the in- crease. The Clerk further reported that there would be special calls as follows ;—Dolwvddelen, £10 Penmachno, £-1-5 Trefriw, (115. PUBLIC lXOClRY AT DOIAVYDDELEN. The Local Government Board wrote to state that a public inquiry would be held at Dol- wvddelen on October 20th relative to the Coun- cil's application for powers to secure a loan of {2,600 to provide the village with a water supply. The following were appointed to attend the inquiry on behalf of the Council: --Rev- J. L 1. Richards, Messrs. W. Evans, D. G. Jones, the Clerk, the Engineer, and the Surveyor. TREFRIW RECREATION GROUND. A letter was read from the Local Government Board, relative to the recent inquiry held at Trefriw touching the Council's application for powers to procure a loan of /500 to purchase the Trefriw Recreation Ground, and intimated that the agreement had been drawn out between the owners and the Trefriw Parish Council. the agreement would have to be transferred to the Geirionydd Council before the application was granted. The Clerk was instructed to take steps to have the agreement transferred as requested. TIMBER HAULING. The Surveyor reported that Messrs. Green & Co. were hauling timber along the Nantbwlchyr- hevrn-road, which would result in the road re- quiring more attention. He was instructed to watch what damage wa" done to the road through extraordinary traffic- CWM, PENMACHNO ROAD.
