During these repairs we found several valves that-were not standard

construction. This section of line was installed by a private con-
tractor fora developer.
We began to experience some difficulty with the No. 1 pump. As we felt
that this pump was still under guarantee it was decided to contact our
engineer and the pump company and have repairs made. This was started
at 6 A.M. Monday May 24 and completed by 10 P.M. Tuesday May 25.
Report to follow.

Report of repairs to No. 1 pump.
During the early part of May we began to experience trouble with
the 100 HP, 1000 GPM pump. After approximately two hours operation,
the motor would cut off on overload. A call was put in to the Johnson
Pump Company and Mr. John Hogan was sent to examine the pump, It was
Mr. Hogans opinion that- the rubber bowl .bearings and the rubber- line
shaft bearings were binding. These bearings are made of rubber with
a hard finish. In some cases a foreign material wears the finish off.
If 'thejchemical content of the water is .right the rubber will swell
and cause' the bearing-to bind. This seemed to be our case.
— Arrangements were made with Mr. Kestner, Mr. LaRose, and Mr. Hogan
to pull the No. 1 pump May 24. Representatives of the Lee Hydraulic
Company and the Hudson Falls Drilling Company, were also to be here.
In order to start this work with full storage tanks, No. 1 & No. 2
pumps were started at 6 AM Monday May 24 and run until 8 AM. Actual
pulling of the pump was started at 9 AM. As of 4:30 PM the motor and
30 foot of casing and shaft were removed. This was done by removing a
roof hatch and using a crane to lift the parts. Because of delays
86
caused by the drilling -company it was -decided to stop work and resume
Tuesday.
Tuesday morning the rest of the casing, shaft and pump bowl were
removed. The bearings were taken to the Glens Falls Machine shop
and replaced with new bronze bearings. These bearings_.has.,,previously-.
been flown in from San Francisco. The pump was then reassembled and
put back into service by 10 PM Tuesday May 25.
While these repairs were being made there was .no. ,interruption of
service or any undue restrictions of water use. By using our
auxiliary pump we. maiutained ample storage for domestic and fire
use. On Monday night we did request some , sections ,to . curtail their _-
hose use at 9:30 PM. This was done in order to make adjustments to, —
the auxiliary equipment.
At this time I.would like to say that Mr. Hogan was most helliil
and exceptionally. cooperative. Also I would like to,thank Mr.Hopktns
who worked 38 hours manning the station. Mr. Kestner, Mr. LaRose,
Mr. Rutlidge, Mr. Beaty and the members of the Town Board, and
members of� the- construction crews deserve thanks for their cooperation.
TOTAL TIME PUMP WAS DOWN 18 Hours
AUXILIARY PUMP RAN 29 Hours
