HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH APRIL 11, 1939 Conservation of Delaware River Water Is Urged TUESDAY EVENING HugeReservoir Alternate Plan Interstate Commission Moves to Allay Fears of Pennsylvania NEW YORKCONCERNED Philadelphia, April 11, W) A plan was projected today by the Interstate Commission on the Delaware river basin to supply metropolitan areas of New Jersey with water by increasing the supply of the proposed Dock Watch Hollow reservoir to a capacity of 15,000,000,000 gallons. The commission held this would provide a "comparatively simple" alternative to the New Jersey plan to use Delaware river water and would remove objections of New York and Pennsylvania. 'The New Jersey plan proposed conveyance of 150,000,000 gallons daily from the Delaware to the northern metropolitan area of New Jersey and 50,000,000 gallons to Trenton and other cities in the southern part of the State by means of the Raritan canal. Pennsylvania fears that such diversion would reduce its water supply for the Philadelphia area, the report said, and New York is concerned about the amount of water it would be required to release in the upper stretches of the Delaware to maintain an adequate flow.
