Under the Water Plant's budget for this year, Account No. 811-30,
we have budgeted $7,000 out of the $15,000 total for the purchase
and installation of two (2) check ~alves (electrically operated) to
replace existing check valves. The replacement will eliminate the
water hammer that is develope~ because of the back pressure when
pu/ups are shut off.
There are two companies which make this type of valve; one is the
Golden Anderson Company, and the other is G. A. Industries. Actu-
ally, G. A. Industries and Golden Anderson manufacturer the identical
valve -- G. A. Industries having split from the original Golden An-
derson Company. We have two (2) quotes for these 12" valves; one at
$3,384 each, and the other at $3,184 each.
I have.enclosed a purghase requisition $23677 for two (2) of these
from-the lower-quoter, G. A. Industries, Inc., out of Pittsburgh.

is substantially o~mf?r ~et~ver-._
