Cost ot the equipment, inclUding tanks, foundations, motors, tormers, valves, and pipe ~i~t1ng8 - al~ eve~ day equipment - would run in the neighborhood ot $62,000.00. This would equip the plant with two 30,000 gallon propane storage tanks. One tank has been located, and the City has a promise tha t another tank oan possibly be added to the shipment soon. In addition to propane storage used this year to augment the gas supply in cold weather they have also looked into the faot that in future years ~l1s equipment can be added to, when water gas prooess can be eliminated and a Hash- ing Ges m80hine substituted costing approximately $.100,000.00 ror a c1t,. of this 8128.
