Roe's proposal to tap water from the Ringwood Mines was not practical. "I'm surprised at Roe," the Mayor said. "He's not that kind of a fella." Van Voorhis said the cost of opening the mines and pumping the water would be prohibitive. At best, he said, the mines could only supply 3,000 gallons per day of stagnant water, not the 3-million gallons of potable water anticipated. And once the water was drained out of the mines, Van Voorhis contended, only a trickle a day would flow back.

"They know all about this at the North Jersey Water District Supply Commission," said of the Mayor. "Harold Gunther the (chief engineer) made a study of it some time ago."
