pressure improvement project for the East Bench. Completion of the total project is ex. pected in the fall of 1973. City officials received the bid.letting go- ahead Thursday in a visit from Hugh M. Hurst, from the U.S.

Housing and Urban Development department's Portland office. HUD will be funding nearly half of the project. September 19 is (he tentative date for opening bids on some five miles of pipe, fittings, and other materials, City Manager Charles Moss said. Crews from Water Supt. Gary Thornton's department will lay the pipe.

Tlds phase of the project also includes construction of a wellliouse in the south end of lower Ross Park and a pump-lioiise near Barton Road. Prefabricated construction is being considered for the buildings. The pipe will start at the Ross Park well currently idle but with a tested gallon-per-minute potential. The water-line will run to Barton Road, then across Idaho State University property east of Interstate 15 and northerly into the undeveloped hilly area. The pipe will connect with two planned reservoirs-- one of three million gallons at elevation; the other of two million gallons at a point 5,120 feet above sea level.

From the storage tanks a return pipeline loop will be extended to East Clark. Bids on the two reservoirs will be called for ttus fall, according to Public Works Director Joel G. Anderson. These bids may have to be on installation labor as well as delivery of the tanks, Anderson said, although tlie city is attempting to do as much of tiie work as possible with its own employes. Hamilton and Voeller of Pocatello are the consulting engineers.

Aim of the project is to improve water pressure in the upland area east of the ISU campus and to facilitate future development of the East Bencli. HUD has granted Pocatello $436,200 for the project. Tlie city's $034,000 share will come from a special hind being built up from water charges paid by citizens. AIR POLLUTION INDEX Today's ail pollution reading was 158 11 guild-hit lii.
