Mr. Gotwald reported on the progress of Deep Well No. 1 in Chomonix. The drilling is done; they are pumping the last of the silt out. A test pumping will be conducted next week to determine the size of the motor and pump which will then be advertised for bids, along with the pump - house.

The size of the well is a 20" outer casing and 12" inner casing, since the 16" outer casing couldn't be used due to the large amount of crushed limestone., Mr. Gotwald stated that the cost may come out less than expected anyway since the depth is less than planned. There is an adequate amount of water, and the system can be expanded to serve a larger area later by putting in a larger pump.

The Metro Sewer Board had stated that there would be no direct assessment from them since the methods of assessment would be too complicated and might involve court cases. Mr. Gotwald stated that individuals can hook directly into the interceptor after application to the Metro Sewer Board is approved, and that 4he Village can assess these hookups by using the average assessment figures of others being made during the same year of hookup. The Village will supervise all such hookups to the interceptor. Mr. Bohjanen asked if the matter of the Miller Bros. road had been acted on.
