Metropolitan Water District Now Completing Last Part of Aqueduct
Working in a deep trench carved into the western flank of towering Mt. San Jacinto, construction crews of The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California are completing a 400-foot section of the Casa Loma siphon, last link on the gigantic Colorado river aqueduct.
This comparatively tiny segment of the world's largest water supply system is the last aqueduct section to be completed. When it is finished within the next few weeks the main aqueduct will be ready for service all the way from the Colorado river to the Cajalco reservoir on the coastal plain, a distance of 242 miles.
Completion of the Casa Loma siphon had been deferred, water district officials pointed out, in order to give access to the west portal of the San Jacinto tunnel while construction work on that the most difficult of all aqueduct links, was being finished. Several weeks ago the hard rock miners on the tunnel completed the concrete lining on this 13-mile bore. All other of the 108 miles of aqueduct tunnels, as well as the canals, conduits, siphons and pumping plants have been completed and made ready for service, it was pointed out.
During the past six months section after section of the huge water carrier has been given its final test and placed in operation.
Four of the giant aqueduct pumps stations which lift this made river a total height of 19 feet across mountain barriers, have been tested and found to have high degree of pumping efficiency. Today, district officials report aqueduct water had been brought as far west as Hayfield reserve 126 miles westward from L.A., Havasu on the Colorado river.
soon as the Casa Loma siphon finished, it was pointed out. Hayfield pumping station will put taking water from the reservoir. Here it will be lifted up pumps for the last time, and begin flowing through tunnels covered conduits the remainder of the distance across the state.
The Cajalco reservoir at the end the main aqueduct.
Construction work on the metropolitan aqueduct was started December, 1932. Since that time more than 35,000 men have been employed on the huge job which is financed by proceeds of a $200,000 bond issue voted by residents of the 13 cities complying the Metropolitan Water District. These district cities are Anaheim, Beverly Hills, Burbank Compton, Fullerton, Glendale Long Beach, Los Angeles, Palmdale, San Marino, Santa Monica, and Torrance.
