Coupled with the rapid progress of work on the giant aqueduct from the Colorado river are reports from numerous local water systems in southern California that there has been a marked increase in the consumption of water during the past year. Only such areas and cities as are now in or may later be admitted to the Metropolitan water district will be able to secure Colorado River Aqueduct water, it was pointed out by Chairman W. P. Whitsett of the District's Board of Directors. During the construction period it is the policy of the District to build aqueduct laterals so that water will be delivered directly to each of its member areas. Areas that may desire to become a part of the Metropolitan Water District after the aqueduct is put into operation, it has been indicated, may be required to bear the entire cost of building water lines to connect with the established Metropolitan Aqueduct system. Requests for information on the steps to be taken to secure a share of aqueduct water have been received from areas totaling approximately 400,000 acres, Chairman Whitsett stated.
