I, T. J. FURLONG, City Clerk of the City of Vernon,
do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution No. 866 was
duly adopted by the City Council of the City of Vernon, and
approved by the Mayor of said City, at a regular meeting
thereof, held on the 18th day

r
valve may be opened to allow the passage of approximately two hundred
(200) gallons per minute. When the water clears, the discharge may
be increased by one hundred (100) gallons per minute increments,
allowing the water to clear each time before increasing the discharge.
The discharge may be thus increased up to five hundred (500) gallons
per minute upon the first run, provided the drawdown in the well does
not exceed twenty (20) feet per one hundred (100) gallons per minute
increment. If this drawdown is exceeded, the well must be pumped for
a sufficient length of time to clean the strata at that discharge
before increasing the discharge.
Upon the development of five hundred (500) gallons per minute,
the pump shall then be throttled to two hundred (200) gallons per
minute and surged at that capacity not more than three times before
allowing the water to clear. When surging at this capacity will pro-
duce no more mud or sand, surging in the above manner may be repeated
at increments of one hundred (100) gallons per minute, up to and in-
cluding five hundred (500) gallons per minute.
When the water is clear after surging at five hundred (500)
gallons per minute, the pump discharge may be increased by one hun-
dred (100) gallons per minute incrernents to fifteen hundred (1500)
gallons per minute, or to the capacity of the well as determined by
the drawdown couve which will have been nlotted bv the Engineer from
the data obtained by the foregoing tests: The de~eloping shall then
be continued by surging at the capacity of the well until practically
free from sand and adjudged satisfactory by the Engineer. After the
above test, the pump shall be removed and the well sandpumped clean
to the bottom.
rI'he Contractor shall furnish, as part of the testing equipment,
a suitaole flow measuring device, acceptable to the Engineer, together
vl'i th a satisfactory c.evice for measuring the water level in the well.
Under no circumstance will the well be accepted by the City
unless the Contractor has the equipment and develops the well as
herein provided.
12. DISPOSAL OF SPOIL AND CLEANUP
During operations the spoil from the construction and testing
of the well shall be confined within the premises upon which the well
is being constructed. The Contractors will be required to dispose
of the spoil bank created by drilling operations and upon completion
shall leave the property free from debris and in a clean, neat and
orderly condition.
13. DEPTH OF WELL
The City shall be required to pay for only 'such depth of well
as is in good condition, thoroughly cleaned of all rock, sand or other
undesirable material.
