S to w' s " Survey of Londou," published in 1598, contains an interesting account of the rivers, brooks and wells of London, and of the artificial conduits and other works which had been constructed in early times to supply water to the various parts of the Metropolis, None of the works there enumerated now remain in use, but the names of some of them are commemorated in Conduit Street, Lambs Conduit, Clerkenwell, &c. The first private Act of Parliament relating to London water was the Hampstead Water Act of 1543, but nothing was done under it until 1589 when four " reservoirs " were formed. Meanwhile the London Bridge Waterworks had been established through the enterprise of a Dutchman, named Peter Morrys, who in 1581, with the consent of the Corporation, erected a water wheel under one of the arches of London Bridge ; this, being turned by the tidal stream, worked forcing pumps which impelled the water through leaden or wooden pipes in the streets, and thence by branches into the houses. The New River was authorised by an Act of 1605-6, followed by another of 1607, which empowered the City Corporation to undertake the work. However, they shrank from the task, and it was left for Sir Hugh Myddelton, a private citizen, to carry it out. The New River Company's charter is dated 1619 ; it recites a deed of arrangement made with King James the First in 1612. Owing to the difficulties of his task, Myddelton was com- pelled to appeal to the King, who furnished the necessary money to complete the work on condition that half the property in the undertaking was ceded to him. In 1613 the New River was completed, and brought water from the Amwell, Chadwell, and other springs in Hertfordshire to reservoirs at Clerkenwell. Waterworks to supply Shadwell were started in 1669. The patent for setting up the York Waterworks at Westminster was dated 1676. The works were destroyed by fire in 1690, and in 1691 an Act was passed incorporating the proprietors as the York Buildings Waterworks Company for supplying part of Westminster with water pumped from the Thames near Charing Cross. The Kent Waterworks were initiated in 1699, and obtained letters patent to take water from the River Ravensbourne in 1701. The works were bought up by a later company formed in 1809. The second in date of the great London Water Companies which survived to modern times was the Chelsea Waterworks Company, which was established in 1723 to supply Westminster and its neighbourhood from the Thames at Chelsea Reach. The West Ham Waterworks Company originated about 1745 to supply the lower part of Whitechapel, Stepney and Bethnal Green and the villages of Bow, Stratford and Bromley. The incor- poration of the Lambeth Waterworks Company followed in 1785. The Grand Junction Canal Company obtained power to supply water to Paddington and adjoining districts in 1798. Early in the nineteenth century other companies were 'ormed, and most of the smaller undertakings were absorbed, and about 1830 the Metropolis was supplied by eight large companies. The New River, Chelsea, East London, West Middlesex, and Grand Junction Companies supplied portions north of the River Thames, while the Lambeth, South London and Southwark Companies supplied portions south of the river. In addition, the Hampstead Water Works supplied parts of Hampstead and St. Pancras, and the Kent Company parts of Deptford, Greenwich, Lewisham, &c. The South London and Southwark companies were afterwards amalgamated to form the Southwark and Vauxhall Company, while the Hampstead Company was absorbed in the New River Company. 2. Powers and Limits of Metropolitan, Companies: Most of the companies were originally formed under special Acts of Parliament, but some of them derived powers also from letters patent. As, however, they had no statutory area of supply competition arose between them, and for a time very low rates were charged. The interests of the companies suffered to such an extent that in 1817 areas of supply were defined by mutual agreement, and the water charges were shortly afterwards considerably increased. As a result much alarm and discontent arose among the public, numerous complaints were made as to the high charges, and several petitions were presented to Parliament. The Marylebone Vestry introduced a Bill to empower them either to supply their parishioners or to enter into contracts with any company for a supply. A Bill was also presented prescribing the maximum charges which the companies might make. Both of these Bills, however, failed to become law. Ill 3. Select Committee of 1821. Eventually in 1821 a Select Committee of the House of Commons was appointed to inquire into the past and present state of the supply of water to the Metropolis and the laws relating thereto. The Committee reported that " a material improvement had taken place in the supply both in respect of abundance " and certainty," and that " the supply of water to London was very superior to that " enjoyed by any other city in Europe." Nevertheless, they pointed out the need for more effective control over the water companies, and recommended legislation to limit their charges and to enable regulations to be made for preventing the waste of water, arbitrary curtailment or withdrawal of supplies, &c. This report was followed by an ineffectual attempt at general legislation, after which the subject dropped, owing, it would seem, to certain steps taken by the companies to avoid occasioning any new cause for discontent. 4. Royal Commission, 1827-8. A few years later, however, the public became dissatisfied with the quality of the water supplied to them, and the inhabitants of Lambeth, Southwark and the western portion of the Metropolis petitioned Parliament for an inquiry into the state of the supply. With the exception of the water provided by the New River and East London Companies the whole of the supply to London was at this time derived from the tidal waters of the Thames at points between London Bridge and Hammersmith, and was distributed as a rule without nitration. In 1827 a Royal Commission was appointed to inquire into the quality and salubrity of the supply of water in the Metropolis, including the south and Surrey sides thereof. The Commissioners -reported that many of the complaints were well founded, that the supply required improvement, and that it ought to be derived from other sources and guarded by such restrictions as would at all times ensure its cleanliness and purity. In consequence of this report the companies endeavoured to improve their supplies by changing their sources, constructing new reservoirs and installing systems of nitration. 5. Select Committee of 1828. A Select Committee of the House of Commons in July 1828 fully endorsed the views of the Royal Commission, and recommended that Mr. Telford, an eminent engineer and member of the Commission, should be instructed to undertake the necessary surveys with a view to the formulation of a practicable and efficacious scheme for supplying the whole of the Metropolis with pure and whole- some water. The Committee commented on the ineqtiality of the rates charged by the various companies, and the need for their regulation in this respect. 6. Mr. Telford' s Report, 1834, Select Committees of 1834 and 1840, and Royal Commission of 1843-5. Mr. Telford was instructed accordingly, and in his report, made in 1834, he advised that the northern part of the Metropolis, then obtaining water from the Thames, should be supplied from the River Verulam at Bushey Mill near Watford, and the southern part from the River Wandle at Beddington Park. He recommended that the New River Company should take steps to safeguard the River Lee from pollution and to pump auxiliary supplies from that river at Tottenham. The East London Company had in the meanwhile carried out improvements designed to ensure a satisfactory supply. Mr. Telford's report was referred to a Select Committee of the House of Commons, which was unable to complete its inquiry, and merely submitted the evidence taken and recommended renewal of the Committee in the next Session of Parliament. The Committee, however, was not renewed. In 1840 a Select Committee of the House of Lords was appointed to consider the existing supply of water to the Metropolis, but it merely examined several witnesses and submitted the evidence. The Royal Commission on the Health of Towns devoted a portion of their second report, published in 1845, to the Metropolis, and as regards the water supply, stated that the principles of legislation which they recommended (see paragraph 35) were applicable to the Metropolis, with such modifications as the varied circumstances of the localities suggested in the constitution of the administrative body for the control and direction of local works. They called attention to the ruinous competition among the water companies then supplying water in London, and to the report of the Committee of 1821. 7. Cholera Outbreak of 1849 and Report of Board of Health, 1850.- Attention was again drawn to the matter in 1849 in consequence of an outbreak of cholera in London. The General Board of Health, which had recently been constituted under A 0.198 876 7/15 - a 2 342335 IV the Public Health Act, 1848, completed a detailed investigation of the question which had been commenced by the Metropolitan Sanitary Commission. They presented a report in 1850 dealing very fully with all questions affecting the water supply of the Metropolis, and strongly urged that the Thames should be abandoned as a source and that a supply should be taken from the Bagshot Sands in the Hindhead district of Surrey. They were also in favour of carrying out works of water supply and drainage at the same time, and of substituting for the water companies the Consolidated Metropolitan Sewers Commission. The Board attached great importance to the provision of an unlimited and constant supply and to the question of reducing the hardness of the water, and one of their chief arguments in favour of a supply from the Surrey Sands was the greater softness of that water. Detailed information respecting the yield of the proposed sources was given in reports and papers published by the Board of Health in 1851. 8. Eoyal Chemical Commission, 1851. In the same year a Bill was introduced bearing upon the supply of water from the River Lee. The Committee of the House of Commons, which considered it, criticised the Report of the Board of Health somewhat severely, and some of the conclusions were in consequence discredited. A scientific Commission was then appointed by the Government to inquire into the chemical quality of the water. In their report the Commissioners described the general qualities and defects of the water supply. They stated that if any considerable quantity of water should continue to be drawn from the Thames it should be taken at points removed from contamination and above tidal influence. In their view the abandonment of the Thames as a source of supply was only a matter of time, unless artificial means of purification could be devised and applied. The Commissioners were satisfied as to the purity of the water recommended by the General Board of Health, but doubted whether a sufficient quantity would be available. They favoured schemes for obtaining supplies from chalk springs near Watford for the north, and between Blackheath and Higham for the south of the Metropolis. During these investigations modifications in the drainage of London were gradually affecting the tidal waters of the Thames. It had long been penal to allow any solid matter to pass into the drains, but with a more plentiful supply of water it was at length made compulsory to wash all solid matter into the drains. But the increase of the population and the extension of the water supply had largely augmented the quantity of house drainage, and it was therefore thought a matter of vital importance to ensure that water for domestic purposes was no longer derived from the tidal waters of the Thames. In these circumstances and as the result of the preceding investigations the Government considered legislation to be essential. 9. Metropolis Water Bill of 1851. Accordingly, a Bill was introduced by Sir George Grey to amalgamate all the existing companies into one, to compel this new company to obtain water from such sources as the Secretary of State might direct, and otherwise to improve the quality of the water. The Bill empowered the Treasury to purchase the property, works and rights of the amalgamated " Metropolitan Water Company " upon giving six months' notice, and upon payment of a sum computed after the rate of 125L for every 100L capital stock of the Company. In introducing the Bill, Sir George Grey said that if a representative metropolitan municipality were in existence or could be provided, he had no doubt that the best plan would be to act through its instrumentality, as in the case of certain large towns, and that such an agency would be more satisfactory to the inhabitants than any other system. The Bill passed Second Reading, but failed to proceed further owing to opposition evidence given before a Committee presided over by Sir James Graham, which did not issue a report. Consequently the Metropolis Water Bill of the following session did not seek to disturb the companies. 10. The Metropolis Water Act, 1852. This Act was the first general Water Act applying to London. It confirmed the companies in their functions and introduced important provisions for their regulation. The chief of these were (a) that after the 31st August ] 856 the companies were prohibited from taking water from the River Thames below Teddington Lock, or from the tidal waters of any tributary stream ; (6) that all reservoirs and aqueducts within a direct distance of 5 miles from St. Paul's Cathedral were to be roofed or covered over, imless the water was subsequently filtered ; (c) that all water supplied for domestic use was to be efficiently filtered, unless pumped direct from wells into covered reservoirs ; (d) that no new source of supply was to be utilised without the approval of the Board of Trade ; (e) that formal complaints as to quantity and quality were to be investigated by the Board of Trade ; and (/) that after the expiration of 5 years from the passing of the Act a constant supply at high pressure was to be given where demanded, under certain conditions, by four-fifths of the inhabitants of the district. The immediate consequence of this Act was the removal of the intakes of all the water companies drawing from the Thames to places above Teddington Lock. The Lambeth and Chelsea Companies erected their new works on the south bank of the river at Long Ditton, while the West Middlesex, Grand Junction and Southwark and Vauxhall Companies constructed their intakes and pumping establishments on the north bank of the river at Hampton. The East London Company also removed its intake on the Lee to Ponders End, above the reach of the tide. Later the Kent Company, in 1862, abandoned the polluted Ravensbourne. 11. Inquiries by Board of Health, 1854-7. In consequence of an outbreak of cholera in 1851 the General Board of Health instituted an inquiry into the chemical composition of waters supplied in the Metropolis. From their report it appeared that some of the waters were very unsatisfactory, whilst the River Thames, even above Teddington Lock, was found to be liable to contamination by very objectionable impurities. In 185G the Board of Health directed chemical and engineering inquiries to ascertain the results of the works, on which about 2,500,OOOL had been expended by the companies in order to comply with the provisions of the Act of 1852. The chemical report showed that while the hardness and solid contents of the water remained about the same, there was a very con- siderable diminution in the amount of organic matter. This was attributed partly to the new intakes and partly to improved methods of collection, filtration, and distribution. The engineers reported favourably on the new works of the Companies and on the manner in which the provisions of the Act had been carried out. They suggested, however, that further inquiry should be made into the removable causes of contamination of the Thames and its tributaries above the sources of supply, and recommended the introduction of the constant service system. A microscopical examination of the waters made in January 1857 showed that, while the condition of the water was greatly improved, it still contained considerable numbers of living vegetable and animal organisms not found in pure waters. 12. Reports of Rivers Pollution Commission as to Rivers Thames and Lee. The condition of the River Thames was not further investigated until 1865, Avheu a Royal Commission was appointed to inquire into the best means of preventing pollution of rivers, with special reference to selected river basins. The inquiry was subsequently extended to include the subject of water supply. The Report of the Commissioners on the River Thames in 1 866 recommended that the whole river should be controlled by one governing body, empowered to ensure its freedom from pollution. An Act was therefore passed in the same year which gave effect to these recommenda- tions by establishing the Thames Conservancy Board. In the following year the Commissioners reported that the River Lee with its tributaries was liable to pollution by sewage and factory refuse, and that there were peculiar difficulties as to its purification and general management, and they recommended measures for its improvement. Accordingly, the Lee Conservancy Act of 1868 was passed con- stituting the Lee Conservancy Board and endowing them with powers analogous to those of the Thames Conservancy Board. 13. Cholera in East London, 1866. A severe outbreak of cholera in the East of London in the year 1866 was generally attributed to the water supplied by the East London Waterworks Company, and formal complaints by the inhabitants led to an investigation by a Commissioner appointed by the Board of Trade, under the provisions of the Act of 1852. The Commissioner reported that the River Lee was much contaminated by sewage, and that impure water therefrom found its way into the Company's reservoirs, and he advised improved filtration and storage. Meanwhile, with a view to improving and augmenting their supply, the Company, early in 1867, applied to Parliament for powers to enlarge their works, and as the very dry season of 1864 had led them to distrust the River Lee as a source from which to draw a sufficient supply, they also sought power to draw 10,000,000 gallons of water per day from the Thames at Sunbury. Both these Bills were passed with certain controlling provisions, and the Committee of the House A 0.198 a 3 VI of Commons to whom they had been referred was instructed to enquire also into the operation and results of the Metropolis Water Act, 1852, which had then been in full operation for 10 years. 14. Select Committee of 1867. The Committee reported that they were satisfied as to the quantity and quality of the water supplied from the Thames, and saw no reason to disturb the arrangements for safeguarding the supply made under the Act of 1852. As regards the River Lee, although they agreed with the Rivers Pollution Commission that it was liable to serious contamination, they considered that the water then supplied from the river was not only wholesome, but compared favourably with that supplied in other places. They suggested certain modifications in the remedial measures recommended by the Commission, and stated that when these improvements were carried out the river would be free from risk of contamination. They reported that the quality of the water supplied by the Kent Water Company was not questioned, and that the supply was in their opinion adequate. They recommended further that a constant service should be enforced under strict provisions for preventing waste and ensuring the suitable condition of all domestic water fittings, that the Metropolitan Board of Works should see that" the statutory obligations of the water companies were duly fulfilled, and that an Act should be passed embodying their suggestions and consolidating all the existing laws as to the water supply of the Metropolis. 15. Royal Commission, 1867-9. Uneasiness was still felt, however, as to the sufficiency and wholesomeness of the water supplies of London, and a Royal Commis- sion, with the Duke of Richmond as chairman, was appointed to inquire into the existing supply of tin- Metropolis and the practicability of obtaining unpolluted and wholesome supplies for London and other large towns in England and Wales. The first Com- mission, which was dated 2-lth December 1866, was revoked and a new Commission issued in 1867. In 1869 the Commission reported that, after detailed investigation of numerous schemes, including proposals to bring water to London from the mountainous districts of Cumberland and Wales, they preferred the existing sources of supply for the Metropolis. They stated that there was no evidence to show that the water supplied by the companies was not generally good and wholesome, though perfect filtration was highly essential and more efficient means of securing this were required. The Commission also considered that ample supplies were available, and they advised that a constant service system should be promptly introduced to the furthest extent possible. To accomplish this, however, they were of opinion that the control of the water supply should be entrusted to a responsible public body, with power to purchase and extend existing works and to levy water rates. 16. Metropolis Water Act, 1871. A Government Bill was introduced in 1871 to give effect to the recommendations of the Royal Commission. The Bill originally provided for compulsory purchase of the Companies' undertakings, but in con- sequence of opposition the clauses relating thereto were withdrawn. A Select Committee of the House of Commons was appointed to consider the curtailed Bill, the principal object of which was to secure for the Metropolis a constant supply of good water. The Committee reported that, as the provisions in the Act of 1852 for ensuring a constant supply had in practice proved inoperative, they had inserted clauses repealing these provisions and requiring the Companies, under certain conditions, to furnish a constant supply on the demand of local authorities or of the Board of Trade. The amended Bill was subsequently passed as the Metropolis Water Act, 1871. The Act required the Companies to make regulations, subject to approval of the Board of Trade, for preventing waste, &c. of water, and also empowered the Board of Trade to investigate and cause to be remedied any complaints respecting the quality of the water, and to appoint a Water Examiner, to be remunerated by the Companies, whose ,duty it should be to ascertain that all water, except that pumped from wells into covered reservoirs, was effectually filtered before distribution. The powers of the Board of Trade under the Act were transferred to the Local Government Board by the Public Health Act, 1872. 17. Miscellaneous Reports, &c., 1872.- Among various papers relating to the water supply of the Metropolis submitted to Parliament in 1872 were (a) Reports as to inadequacy at Bermondsey and impurity at Newington, by the Water Examiner appointed under the Act of 187]. (b) Reports on analyses of the waters supplied by the Companies during 1869-71. Vll (c) Reports on the constant service system of water supply. (d) Return showing all public surface wells in the Metropolis, specifying such as were permanently closed. (c) Regulations made by the Companies under the Metropolis Water Act, 1871, for a constant supply of water, approved by a Commission of Inquiry appointed by the Board of Trade. 18. Final Report of the, Rivers Pollution Commission, 1874. In 1874 the Royal Commission on the Pollution of Rivers issued their final report dealing with the domestic water supplies of Great Britain. The report contained a comprehensive historical and descriptive account of the water supply of the Metropolis, and the Commissioners stated that after careful consideration of the existing water supply and the possibility of its improvement, they were of opinion that both the. Thames and Lee ought to be abandoned as sources of supply. They considered it unnecessary to bring water from Cumberland or Wales, and suggested that abundant supplies of excellent water could be obtained from springs and deep wolls in the Valley of the Thames. To attain this end they recommended that the supply of the Metropolis should be controlled by a responsible public body with power to acquire existing works and construct any other works that might be necessary. 19. Hills of 1878 to 1880 and Select Committee of 1880. Two Bills were introduced by the Metropolitan Board of Works in 1878, one, based upon the dual system, sought to provide a new constant high-pressure service for drinking and cooking and for extinction of fires without interfering with existing supplies, whilst the other sought powers to purchase the Companies' undertakings. Both Bills were lost ; the District Auditor disallowed the heavy expenditure incurred without proper authority, and an Indemnity Act had to be passed in the following Session to relieve members of the Board of Works from liability. The Bill of 1880 arose out of this failure on the part of the Metropolitan Board of Works, for upon a motion by Mr. Fawcett in 1879 calling upon the Government to deal with the pressing question of 'London's water supply without further delay, the Home Secretary, Mr. Cross, undertook to bring in a Government measure. The Bill provided for the public control of the water supply by the formation of a Water Trust representing the ratepayers, metropolitan authorities, and various Government Departments. It was proposed to acquire the undertakings of the Companies by the issue to them of 3|- per cent, water stock in payment, the total purchase price being provisionally fixed at 31,()00,OOOL The Bill was strongly opposed by the City .Corporation and the Metropolitan Board of Works. A change of Ministry occurred before it could be considered by a Committee, and the Committee which actually considered it, and which was presided over by Sir William Harcourt, reported that the control of the water supply by a public body was very desirable, and suggested early legislation for the creation of a Water Authority representing the Corporation of London, the Metropolitan Board of Works, and the districts outside the metropolitan area which were supplied by the Companies. The Committee also thought it desirable to acquire the undertakings upon fair and reasonable terms, but as they were of opinion that the present terms of the Companies were excessive, they suggested that it should be the duty of the Water Authority, when constituted, to consider whether a new and better supply could not be obtained at less cost. No action was taken on this Report, and the Bill was dropped. The Metropolitan Board of Works introduced Bills in 1884, 1885 and 1886 to empower them to introduce Bills dealing with the water supply of London, but they failed to become law. 20. London County Council and City Corporation Committee's Reports, 1890. Select Committee, 1891. The water supply of the Metropolis engaged the attention of the London County Council soon after their formation in 1889, and, as a result of inquiries instituted by them under statutory authority, they reported that there were strong pnmd facie grounds for believing that the Thames would not long suffice for the needs of the rapidly growing population of the Metropolis. In view, however, of the limitation of their powers, they urged the Government to institute a com- prehensive inquiry into the matter. At the same time a Committee of the City Corporation recommended that the undertakings of the Companies should be transferred to a public authority controlling the whole supply of the Metropolis. These recommendations were embodied by the Corporation in the London Water in Vlll Commission Bill, 189 1, which, together with one promoted by Certain Metropolitan Vestries, and known as the Metropolitan Water Supply Bill, 1891, was referred to a Select Committee, presided over by Sir Matthew White Ridley, for inquiry. The former of these Bills proposed to constitute a Commission with power to introduce Bills in Parliament for the acquisition of existing waterworks and the construction of new works, and the latter to create a representative Trust to purchase the Companies' undertakings by agreement or on arbitration terms. Another Bill promoted by the London County Council was dropped. The Committee reported generally in favour of the London County Council becoming the Water Authority for London, and recommended that the Council should be empowered to promote Bills to enable them to investigate the whole question of the water supply, and to acquire, either alone or in conjunction with the Authorities of outside' areas, the undertakings of the eight Water Companies. It was suggested that failing agreement the transfer should be effected by arbitration within a limited period. 21. London County Council Water Committee's Report, 1891, and London Water Act, 1892. A report by the Water Committee of the London County Council on the proceedings in Parliament on the Water Bills of 1891 declared that the Council was unable to accept the condition contained in the third recommendation of the Ridley Report that the London County Council, if constituted a Water Authority, should be required to purchase the undertakings of the eight water companies by agreement or by arbitration within a fixed period. It accepted the recommendation of the Harcourt Report that for " certain purposes at least it would be desirable to acquire the ' undertakings of the existing companies if the same could be obtained on fair and ' reasonable terms " ; and that such terms should be based, not upon the price according to past dividends or Stock Exchange values, " but upon the true value of the undertaking, ' having regard to its legal position and liabilities, to the condition of the property, ' and to its ability to supply future wants." The London Water Bill, 1892, was promoted by agreement between the City Corporation and the London County Council to constitute a new Water Authority and to empower the County Council to promote Bills relating to the supply of Avater within the limits of the Metropolitan Water Companies and to make inquiries as to the existing supply of water within that area and as to other possible sources of supply. The Select Committee on the Bill struck out those portions which proposed to constitute a new Water Authority and the Bill was then passed. 22. Royal Commission, 1892-3. In 1892 a lioyal Commission under the presidency of Lord Balfonr of Burleigh considered the quality and adequacy of the water supplies available within the watersheds of the Rivers Thames and Lee, together with various schemes relating to the supply of the Metropolis. The Commis- sion stated that, in their opinion, the existing supply in the Metropolis was of a high standard of excellence, but they suggested measures for the prevention of pollution of the Rivers Thames and Lee and their tributaries, for treatment of the water after its abstraction from the rivers, and for augmenting the existing supplies. They were satisfied that if effect were given to their recommendations an ample supply would be secured to the Metropolis for a long time, without prejudice to the supplies of neighbouring districts. 23. Bills of 1894 -7 and Select Committee of 1896. Bills for the purchase of each of the eight Companies' undertakings were introduced by the London County Council between 1894-7. In 1895 the Bills were opposed by Mr. Chaplin, President of the Local Government Board, who had suggested that arbitration under the Lauds Clauses Consolidation Act should be assented to and that a new Water Trust should be substituted for the Council ; but to this the County Council would not assent. After the dissolution of Parliament in 1895, which suspended the Bills, the London County Council passed a resolution asking the Government to promote or assist legislation to place the entire control of the water supply within the area of the County of Ixmdon in the hands of the London consumers directly represented by the County Council and the City Corporation ; and recommending that the consumers in the Metropolitan water area outside the county should not be denied or deprived of similar rights in their respective areas, and that the purchase price should not be assessed under the provisions of the Lauds Clauses Consolidation Act but based upon the fair and reasonable value of the undertakings, due regard being had to the rights, special circumstances and obligations of the companies. A Bill was promoted by the Government in 189G for the formation of a Water Trust. Both this and IX the London County Council's Bills failed to become law. Several Bills were also promoted in 1896 by the Water Companies, and the Select Committee that reported on these Bills pointed out that no regulations existed for ensuring the purity of the water as recommended by the Royal Commission of 1893, that the powers of the Water Examiner were very limited, and that the position of the water supply was not in accordance with the public interest. 24. Metropolis Water Act, 1897. The Metropolis Water Act, 1897, enabled the Railway and Canal Commissioners to determine complaints by consumers and local authorities respecting the quality and quantity of the water, and empowered them to compel the Companies to remedy any default. 25. Royal Commission, 1897-9, and Metropolis Water Act, 1899. In view of the failure of several Bills proposing the purchase of the Water Companies' undertakings, a Royal Commission, with Lord Llandaff as chairman, was appointed in 1897 to inquire into the desirability of the establishment of a public authority to acquire and manage these undertakings, the constitution of such an authority, and the practicability of intercommunication of the companies' systems. Considerable distress in East London due to curtailment of supplies by the East London Water- works Company during a drought in 1898 led the Commission to issue an interim report recommending immediate legislation to render intercommunication possible. The Metropolis Water Act, 1899, accordingly enabled and required the companies to supply each other in cases of emergency. The Commission considered a scheme advocated by the London County Council for procuring an additional supply from Wales, but stated in their final report of 1899 that a good and sufficient supply was available from the watersheds of the Thames and Lee, provided that efficient measures were taken for its storage and protection. In view of the magnitude of the future requirements of the Metropolis, and the in advisability of relying upon private enter- prise for the necessary scientific treatment of the river water, the Commission recommended the constitution of a permanent Water Board as the best means of ensuring a pure supply, efficient distribution, and prevention of waste. They suggested that the members of the Board should be appointed by the County Councils concerned and the Thames and Lee Conservancy Boards, and that the Board should, be empowered and required to acquire by agreement or arbitration the Companies' undertakings, the expenses of purchase to be defrayed by the issue of a 3 per cent, stock on the security of the water charges in the whole area supplied. 26. Metropolis Water Act, 1902. As a result of the report of the Royal Commission, Bills were introduced in 1900 and 1901, but were defeated in each case on second reading. In 1902, however, the Metropolis Water Act was passed to establish a W'ater Board on the lines recommended. The Board was more representa- tive than that suggested by the Commission, as it included also members appointed by the local authorities of districts within the Companies' limits of supply. In order to secure the purity of the supply the Board were required to cause chemical and bacteriological examinations of the water to be made, and to afford facilities for inspection to the Government Water Examiner. The Act also conferred various powers upon the Local Government Board, to whom the Water Board were required to furnish an annual report on their proceedings for submission to Parliament. 27. Metropolitan Water Board. -The Metropolitan Water Board was established in April 1903, and was immediately occupied with the financial and other business arising from the proceedings of the Court of Arbitration, and in preparing for the organisation of the water undertakings under one administration. It was not until July 1905 that the whole of the Companies' undertakings were formally vested in the Board. The cost of acquisition of the several companies' undertakings was 46,939,258?, 28. Metropolitan Water Board (Charges) Act, 1907. One of the Board's first duties was the preparation of a Bill providing for uniform scales of charges throughout the Metropolitan area in lieu of the varying charges of the Water Companies, which had been temporarily retained. The Metropolitan Water Board (Charges) Act was accordingly passed in 1907 prescribing such scales, the charge for water for domestic purposes being fixed at 5 per cent, on the rateable value 1 of the premises supplied. Since this Act was passed there has been an annual deficiency in the accounts of the Water Board varying from 25,OOOL to 74,OOOL, which has had to be defrayed by a rate levied over the whole area supplied. 29. Water Examinations. In order to fulfil their statutory obligations for ensuring the purity of the water supplied by them, the Water Board decided, on the advice of a committee of experts, to organise a central research laboratory with a special staff under the control of a Director of Water Examinations. The utmost importance is attached by the Water Board to the frequent and systematic examina- tion of the water,'and periodical reports are made to them on the results of such examinations, whilst valuable reports on special researches as to water purification have been issued by them. 30. Particulars of Undertaking. Particulars of the undertaking as it existed on 31st March 1914 appear on pages 163-5 of the present return and the following summary includes some additional information : - The area and population of each county within the Water Board's statutory limits of supply is shown in the following table : County. Census 1911. Area in Statute Acres. Population. London Essex (part) - Hertford (part) Kent (part) - Middlesex (part) - Surrey (part) Total 74,816 68,536 14,636 101,842 62,511 35,360 4,521,685 867,391 11.221 238,753 914.696 220,199 357,701 6,774,245 The chief sources from which the Water Board obtain water continue to be the Rivers Thames and Lee, 59 '1 per cent, of the total supplies being derived from the former and 23 '6 per cent, from the latter, while only 17 '3 per cent, is obtained from wells and other soiirces. The Board's works of filtration include 172 filter beds with a total area of 170 acres, while a further 15 acres of filter beds are about to be provided. Eight patent filters have also been installed. The Board possess 49 storage and 84 service reservoirs, with a total capacity of about 12,908 million gallons, and when the works at present authorised are completed this total will be increased to 25,208 million gallons. The average daily supply per head in 1913-14 was 36 '16 gallons. The total average daily quantity of water supplied was over 244 million gallons or more than 200 million gallons in excess of that supplied by the Manchester Corporation, who own the second largest undertaking in the country. With the exception of the new water supply scheme for greater New York, which is said to provide a supply of 500 million gallons a day, the Metropolitan Water Board manage the largest water undertaking in the world. WATER SUPPLIES OUTSIDE THE METROPOLIS. 31. Early Municipal Undertakings. The authorities of a few provincial towns had at an early date provided piped supplies of water, probably under powers conferred by their charters. Municipal supplies were stated in a Parliamentary return of reproductive undertakings of municipal corporations issued in 1899 to have been established at Southampton in 1420, Hull in 1447, Bath in 1500, Plymouth in 1590, Rye and Oxford in the 17th century, and Pembroke, Haverfordwest, Richmond (Yorks.), and Aberystwyth between 1800 and 1844. On the other hand some towns which possessed early local Acts authorising a public supply of water did not claim in that return the date of those Acts as the date of the institution of their water undertakings, so that in all probability the early powers lapsed. The first local Act authorising a municipal water supply appears to be one of 1541 conferring powers on the Mayor and Dean of Gloucester. An Act of 1585, obtained by Sir Francis Drake, gave similar powers for Plymouth and one of 1593 for Stonehouse. The disturbed state of the country during the 17th century no doubt accounts for the absence of further legislation axithorising supplies of water to provincial towns, but it has been seen that several London supplies were XI inaugurated during this period. An Act of 1741 empowered the Corporation of Gloucester to contract with any person willing to undertake to convey water from certain springs to supply the city, and in 1747 an Act was passed for repairing, improving, and maintaining the public conduits and other waterworks belonging to the town of Southampton. An Act of 1766 empowered the Corporation of Bath to undertake works necessary for bringing water to the city from certain springs owned by them, all rights respecting water courses, &c., connected with the springs being vested in the corporation. Another Act passed in 1775 empowered Commissioners for the Borough of Brecknock to supply the town and liberties thereof with water obtained from various sources, to carry out all necessary works, and to contract for supplies of water. The Commissioners relied wholly upon the River Honddu for a supply, but as the Act limited the quantity of water to be taken from this source, only a very small part of the town was supplied by them. Between the years 1775 and 1840 a few other municipal authorities and a number of companies obtained by local Acts powers to supply water. 32. Select Committee of 1840. A Select Committee of the House of Commons in 1840 inquired into the circumstances affecting the health of the inhabitants of large towns and populous districts with a view to improved sanitary regulations, and reported that the provision of ample supplies of water within the reach and means of the poorer classes was of the utmost consequence, as in some places the existing supplies were lamentably deficient. 33. Mr. Edwin Ghadwiek's Report, 1842. fn 1842 a report by Mr. Edwin Chadwick to the Poor Law Commissioners on the sanitary condition of the labouring population of Great Britain again drew attention to defects in existing water supplies and the necessity of improved supplies for house and street cleansing. 34. Health of Towns Commission, 1843-5. In the following year a Royal Commission, with the Duke of Buccleuch as chairman, was appointed to inquire into the state of large towns and populous districts in England and Wales. The Commissioners issued reports in 1844 and 1845 reviewing, amongst other things, the question of water supply in towns and populous districts, and specially considering the supplies to the poorer classes. They printed a table setting out, in respect of 50 populous towns to which they sent a list of questions, the answers given (amongst other things) to the questions from what sources the town was supplied with water and how the poorer classes were supplied. The reports show that few local improve- ment Acts contained any provisions on the subject of water supply. Public supplies in large towns were generally afforded by joint stock companies under powers conferred by special Acts of Parliament, but the difficulty, delay and expense of obtaining these Acts formed a great obstacle in procuring such supplies, especially in smaller towns. The laws in force and the usages then prevailing with regard to the supply of water in the great majority of towns and districts provided only for carrying mains through the principal streets, and failed in the important matter of carrying supplies into the habitations of the poorer consumers under an economical and properly regulated system. In consequence many people were obliged to carry their supply of water considerable distances at much inconvenience, labour, and expense. A large number of people in towns were unable to avail themselves of the piped services, and depended for their supplies upon wells, springs, ponds, rainwater or adjacent streams sources which were frequently liable to pollution. The Commissioners summarised the results of their inquiries in regard to the water supply of the 50 large provincial towns referred to, in the statement that the supplies of 6 of the towns were good, of 13 indifferent, and of 31 bad. They quoted evidence showing (a) the expense and inconvenience of common standpipe or tank supplies, and the frequent and increasing pollution of wells in densely peopled districts ; (/>) the impurities and deterioration in water, comparatively pure at its source, through the use of butts or tanks for intermittent supplies ; (c) the advantages of constant supplies ; (d) the improved health and cleanliness of the labouring classes resulting from provision of supplies of water in their houses ; (e) the possibility of providing abundant and inexpensive supplies for the poorer inhabitants. Xll Their report states that from the returns received from the 50 towns visited, it appeared that 20 only were supplied with water under the provisions of any Act of Parliament. The supply in these towns was very delicieiit, and in many of them only extended to a part of the town, the poorest and most populous portions deriving little or no benefit. In some of the larger towns the proportion of the houses that received a separate supply was extremely small. Thus at Birmingham only 8,000 out of 40,000 houses were stated to be separately supplied and at Newcastle upon Tyne it was stated that the company supplied about one-twelfth only of the dwelling houses, and that very few of those had either tanks or tubs. In other towns not supplied by any public company or under any local Act, the inhabitants sometimes had the advantage of a supply by pipes from ancient springs belonging to the corporation or some private individual, but the supplies were generally inadequate to the demands of the population, in many instances owing to the defective system of distribution. Thus, at Coventry the springs on one side of the town, which were described as being sufficient to afford the means of giving a cheap and abundant supply, were under lease to an individual, and only between 300 and 400 houses out of 7,200 received a supply. The Town Council was stated to have a supply of water iinder their command, but it was let. At Norwich, where about one-fourth only of the houses were supplied, the waterworks were in the hands of four persons under lease from the corporation. Complaints were here made of the deficiency of water, and that the poorer classes often stole the water from pipes belonging to other estates. These instances of deficient quantities of water did not, however, always occur where the supply was under the management of private individuals. At Long-ton, a town in the pottery districts containing 2,000 houses, it appeared that nearly all of them had a separate and a constant supply. The city of Bath afforded an instance of a town generally well supplied with water without any legislative provisions for the purpose.* The facility with which water was obtained at Bath, without any expense of pumping, and requiring only the outlay necessary for its distribution, appears to have induced the owners of the several properties to lay down pipes for the supply of their own houses. About 3,000 out of 8,000 houses in the city were supplied by the corporation in 1845 ; the remainder of the city was supplied by seven companies as they were termed, though they were, in fact, owners supplying their own tenants. The Corporation of Bath supplied gratuitously six public conduits in some of the poorer districts, but from these the water could be drawn during five hours only in the morning. The Commissioners considered that if the duty of obtaining a supply of water was vested in one body, a large quantity of water that was allowed to run to waste at Bath might be most beneficially applied to the use of the poor in the worst districts of this city. The neighbouring city of Bristol, containing, with Clifton, 130,000 inhabitants, was not supplied with water under the provisions of any Act of Parliament, and the supply was probably more inadequate than in any town of equal size in England. It was estimated that not more than 5,000 persons, constituting the most wealthy families in Bristol and Clifton, were supplied with water by pipes laid into their houses. The remainder of the population were dependent on public and private wells, which were very numerous but frequently polluted. The system most commonly adopted for supplying the poorer classes with water was by standpipes or public wells. A striking instance of the injurious operation of this system was found at Newcastle upon Tyne. The poor there obtained water either from public fountains supplied by the Water Company, and paid for by the Corporation, or from " sale-pants " or standpipes, at which the water was sold at the rate of a farthing a " skeel," a vessel containing five gallons. This charge was more than four times the rate charged for a private supply to a house, and was the same sum that the water companies in some other towns charged for 79 gallons delivered in the house, and always at command. The mischievous operation of this system, both upon the interests of the Company and the public, was indicated by the fact that at the first erection of a sale-pant, and until the customers were numerous, the superintendent was paid two-thirds of the gross receipts. The eagerness to obtain water was, however, so great that the payment was soon reduced to one-third ; and notwithstanding the cost and the difficulty of obtaining the water, it was stated that a great improvement in the condition of the neighbourhood always followed the introduction of a sale-pant. ' The Commissioners ignore the local Act referred to in paragraph ;i|. Xlll The following quotation from a statement by Mr. Holme on the supply of Liverpool appended to the report illustrates some of the disadvantages which existed at that time in the supply of water by companies : " Liverpool is supplied with water by two public companies, each having an Act of Parliament which confers upon them a monopoly of supply. One is termed the Bootle Water Company ; the other the Liverpool and Harrington Water Company. The former Company raise their supply from springs at Bootle, distant from the Exchange three miles ; and the latter have wells in various parts of the town. The original shares of 100Z. in the Bootle Company are now worth, in the market. 380J., and those of the Liverpool and Harrington Company are worth 610L The charge for supplying water for domestic use is one shilling in the pound on the rental and it is usually supplied every other day. It therefore follows that had the corporation or the parochial authorities originally supplied the water from the public funds, and no legislative enactment had given to these companies exclusive privileges, that we should have been supplied with water at one-sixth of the present price ; or if we had paid the same price a large disposable revenue would have accrued to the public local exchequer, which would have diminished our taxation, or have enabled the authorities to have established public fountains and had public reservoirs for the use of the poor in every locality. ' The many calamitous fires which have occurred, and which since the commencement of the present century have destroyed buildings and other property exceeding two millions in value, have at length roused the attention of the whole community. It has frequently happened that at the commencement of a fire an hour or two has elapsed before any water could be obtained. There are stipulations in the Companies' Acts that they shall supply water in case of fire, but no penalty is attached, and as fires originate in the night it has so happened that we have seldom been supplied until a fire has widely spread and then not in sufficient quantities. " Power was therefore obtained during the last Session to levy a rate upon the inhabitants, sink wells, and lay pipes in such of the streets as the Commissioners may deem fit ; but from the opposition of the Water Companies, there is a restriction imposed, viz., that such water shall be used only for public purposes, viz., watering the streets and extinguishing fires ; and consequently the inhabitants will have to pay for water which they are prohibited from using for domestic purposes, and we shall yet be subjected to the exorbitant charges made by the two Companies. " In Liverpool the monopoly enjoyed by our two great water companies has been, I consider, prejudicial to the health of the community. Whatever is made a matter of sale pre-supposes two parties having opposite interests, viz., the seller and the buyer. It is the interest of the former to get the very highest price he can for his commodity ; and if there be no other means of supply, and no competition, the buyer is necessarily at his mercy. An understanding between the two companies can of course prevent competition, and consequently the" inhabitants of Liverpool have to pay a price for water which yields to the original proprietors of the first company or their successors 30 per cent on the original subscribed capital, and to the proprietors of the second company 19 per cent. This, considering that the shares are marketable, may be right enough and the proprietors are justified in getting as large a price as they can for their water ; but it is a great local misfortune and is severely felt. We have not in Liverpool a single public fountain, very few troughs for watering cattle, and those only near the docks, no stand-pipes for cleansing the foot-walks or fronts of our dwellings, nor any reservoir for washing out the public sewers. Water is purchased for nearly all our public buildings, our charitable institutions, and our private dwellings ; and its scarcity or price induces many of the poorer classes to obtain it surreptitiously and consequently irregularly, and thus obtaining it is not considered a crime. No individual possessing a steam engine, and a constant supply of water from his own well, can sell his surplus water to his neighbour, and the overflows have to be turned into the sewers. Water is as essential to the health and comfort of mankind as the air we breathe ; and when mankind congregate in masses, counted only by tens of thousands, it is essential to the public health that it should be most abundant, not doled out to yield to others 30 per cent, interest, but supplied from the public rates and at the net cost. That cost ought only to be the price of raising and distribution ; and in this town XIV pure water may be found in every direction and in superabundance at an average depth of 120 feet. If we had fountains, at once useful and ornamental in every direction, as in most cities of the continent, and baths in every locality so that water was free to all, the benefits would soon be perceived ; and I am convinced that if the interest of the two water companies was purchased by rates levied for the purpose even at their high premium the town would soon be the gainer, for it is impossible that the public will much longer be satisfied with the price and comparative scarcity of water, and the power recently obtained to distribute water for extinguishing fires will be sought to be increased ; and it will be impossible for Parliament to refuse such extension, unless a very great reduction in the present charges is speedily made." 35. Recommendations of the Commissioners. Asa result of their investigations the Commissioners were of opinion that the existing system of supplying and charging for water was most prejudicial to the interests of the poor, and they were satisfied that constant supplies of pure water could only be provided economically by independent and disinterested bodies. They therefore made the following recommendations : " That with the view of insuring a sufficient supply and proper distribution of water to all classes, it be made imperative on the local administrative body charged with the management of the sewerage and drainage to procure a supply of water in sufficient quantities, not only for the domestic wants of the inhabitants, but also for cleansing streets, scouring sewers and drains and for the extinction of fires, the said body to have power to contract with companies or other parties, or make other necessary arrangements. " That where any independent body has the management of the supply of water it be liable to comply with the demand of the local administrative body on equitable terms ; the local administrative body to be empowered to purchase the interest in waterworks, subject to the control of the Crown, whenever the proprietors are willing to dispose of them ; and on the establishment of new companies it be made a condition that the local administrative body be enabled to piirchase the works after the lapse of a certain number of years upon certain terms, and upon a rate of interest to be fixed ; and that, with a view to economy, competition between water companies be discouraged as far as practicable." 36. Towns Improvement Clauses Act, 1847. The reports of the Royal Commission were followed by the passing of the Towns Improvement Clauses Act, 1847, and legislation of a general character on the subject of water supply may be said to date from this year. The Act embodied sundry provisions usually included in local acts for paving, draining, cleansing, lighting and improving towns, but it only applied in those towns which obtained local Acts incorporating its provisions. Section 121 empowered the Commissioners for improving and regulating the towns or districts in which the Act applied to construct and maintain public cisterns, pumps, wells, conduits and' other waterworks, and to supply water to the inhabitants, subject as regards new works to the approval, after local inquiry, of H.M. Commissioners of Woods, Forests, &c. 37. Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847. The Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, embodied provisions regulating the construction of waterworks and other matters incidental thereto usually inserted in local Acts relating to water undertakings, but, like the Towns Improvement Clauses Act, its application was limited to undertakings with local Acts incorporating its provisions. 38. Public Health Act, 1848. The Public Health Act, 1848, authorised the consti- tution of local Boards of Health, and sections 75 to 80 empowered them to furnish proper and sufficient water supplies in their districts, with the proviso that where a Company had statutory powers in a district no waterworks could be undertaken without its consent. The application of the Act, however, was confined to such towns and places as, after inquiry, the General Board of Health considered advisable. Local boards were also enabled to maintain public cisterns, pumps, &c. for gratuitous use, and to require a supply to be provided for any house without a proper supply where such supply was available at a cost not exceeding 2d. per week. Under the Act, also, penalties were imposed for injuring waterworks, diverting streams, wasting water, polluting reservoirs, &c. 39. General Hoard of Health Report, 1849. The general condition of town water supplies in 1849 may be appreciated from the first report of the General Board of Health on the measures adopted for the execution of the Public Health Act. The Board stated XV that inconsequence of the difficulties experienced in securing satisfactory sources of water the common practice had been to take as sources the nearest, river, stream or collection of water, without much regard to its quality. In order to avoid inconvenience and loss occasioned by river waters of high degrees of hardness, in some northern towns surface flood waters from lands suitable for gathering grounds were collected in reservoirs and thence distributed. As no arrangements existed for excluding water derived from cultivated land, the Board of Health proposed to make provision for the purchase of the rights to water derived from land drainage or shallow springs, with powers to prevent pollution, and also for the purchase of new gathering grounds. 40. Further Legislation. Minor amendments of the general law regarding water supply were made by means of incidental clauses in various Sanitary and other Acts. The Local Government Act, 1858, was made adoptive in towns and places in which the Act of 1848 had not been applied, and sections 51 to 53 extended the powers of local boards as to the provision of water supplies. The Nuisances Removal and Diseases Prevention Act, 1800, by section 7. vested all public wells, fountains and pumps in the Nuisance Authority of each place. The Local Government Act (1858) Amendment Act, 18(31, by section 20, enabled the local boards of districts outside the statutory limits of water companies to secure supplies by agreement. The Waterworks Clauses Act, 1863, embodied further provisions not included in the Act of 1847, but generally inserted in local Acts relating to water undertakings. 41. Select Committee, 1865, and Sanitary Act, 1866. In 1865 a Select Committee of the House of Commons reported on a Waterworks Bill which proposed Government supervision of all plans and works for provision of large reservoirs. The Committee considered that, in view of the great loss of life and destruction of property that had occurred through accidents to reservoirs, it was the duty of the legislature to protect the public, as far as circumstances permit, from the possibility of such mischief. They recommended that the Bill should not be proceeded with, but that a Govern- ment Bill should be introduced in the ensuing session, requiring plans of new reservoirs to be submitted to a central authority, who should appoint competent persons to inspect and report on those plans, to inspect works under construction and on completion, and to continue the inspection of large reservoirs from time to time. The Bill recommended was not, however, introduced. The Sanitary Act, 1866, merely conferred the powers of local boards, with regard to water, on sewer authorities, and vested in those authorities all public wells, fountains and pumps previously owned by nuisance authorities. 42. Eoyal Commission on Water Supply, 1866-9. The Report of the Royal Commission on Water Supply appointed in 1866, and re-appointed in 1867 (paragraph 15), contains only a few general remarks and recommendations as regards the water supply of provincial towns, being chiefly concerned with the supply of the metropolis. The Commission advised that the use of distant sources should only be authorised in special circumstances, that places near lengthy conduits should be supplied therefrom, and that the scope of provincial water bills should embrace extensive districts and not merely particular places. 43. Eoyal Sanitary Commission, 1869-70. The Royal Sanitary Commission of 1869-70 stated that the question of water supply involved more serious difficulties than any other subject referred to them. They reviewed the existing law on the subject, and recorded that as early as 1388 measures were taken to prevent the pollution of water by the passing of an Act imposing a penalty of 201. upon persons who cast animal filth and refuse into riVers and ditches. They noted, however, that after the Public Health Act, 1848, the authorities of many towns discharged sewage and drainage into rivers, regardless of pollution and the consequent loss of piire water to the inhabitants of the valleys through which such rivers afterwards passed. They recom- mended that extensive supervisory powers with regard to water supply should be given to the new Central Public Health Authority proposed by them (which was established as the Local Government Board in 1871) ; that the new statute which they advocated for the consolidation of the existing sanitary law (afterwards passed as the Public Health Act 1872, which was repealed and re-enacted by the Public Health Act 1875) should incorporate the main provisions of the Waterworks Clauses Acts, 1847 and 1863 ; that a new Waterworks Clauses Act should be passed comprising further provisions usually inserted in Water Acts ; that powers should be given for the compulsory purchase of lands and water rights by Provisional Order ; that further steps should be taken to XVI secure the safety of reservoirs ; that a central authority should be empowered to take legal proceedings against any purveyors of water who wilfully or negligently distribute polluted water ; that every reasonable facility should be afforded for analysis of water ; that a constant service should he insisted on as far as possible ; and that houses in country districts should not be permitted to be occupied without some supply of wholesome water, or access to such a supply. 44. Ewers Pollution Commission, 1868-74. The second Royal Commission appointed to inquire into the pollution of rivers recommended in their first report (1870) that all rivers and streams in England should be placed under the superintendence of a central authority or board qualified to deal with questions connected with the pollution of water and with water supply, whose duty it should be to exercise surveillance over the quality and quantity of the water supply of towns, to guard domestic supplies from contamination, or to remove sources of contamination, to investigate all schemes for water supply and all proposals for public works connected with river conservancy, and to report on these matters to a Secretary of State. The Commission, however, reserved the results of their investigations of the domestic water supplies of Great Britain for their sixth and final report, which was issued in 1874. This report contained exhaustive information as to the classification, chemical composition, and wholesomeness of drinking water from various sources, and as to various important questions affecting water supply specially considered by the Commission, viz., the self-purification of polluted rivers, the propagation of epidemics by potable water, the superiority of soft over hard water, water softening processes, the purifying effects of filtration, the deterioration of water in pipes, and the advan- tages of constant over intermittent systems of supply. Besides describing the water supplies of the metropolis, the report contained detailed descriptions of the water supplies of many provincial cities, towns, and villages, which the Commission had visited or as to which they had received information. The Commission recommended that in schemes for supplying towns from particular river basins supplies should, when practicable 1 , be provided for neigh- bouring villages, that landowners should be permitted to charge their estates with the cost of village supplies, and that in order to obviate the necessity of utilising flood waters, ample storage reservoirs should be provided for supplies derived from rivers and streams receiving sewage effluents. 45. Gas and Water Works Facilities Acts, 1870 and 1873. Meanwhile, in 1870, the Gas and Water Works Facilities Act was passed, and by it the Board of Trade were empowered to authorise, by means of Provisional Orders subject to confirmation by Parliament, any company or person to construct or maintain waterworks and to supply water in places not within the statutory limits of supply of any other under- taker. The consent of the local authority of the district was made necessary before a Provisional Order authorising the construction of waterworks coiild be obtained. If the works were not substantially commenced within one year from the date of the Order, or such shorter period as was fixed by the Order, or after being commenced were suspended without sufficient reason, or were not completed within three years from the date of the Order, or such shorter period as was fixed by the Order, the powers given by the Order were to lapse. The Gas and Water Works Facilities Act, 1870, Amendment Act, 1873, enabled the Board of Trade to revoke, amend, or extend any Provisional Orders issued by them. The Sanitary Law Amendment 'Act, 1874 (section 50) enabled sanitaiy authorities to secure the closure of polluted wells. 46. Public Health Act, 1875, &c. The Public Health Act, 1875, and the Rivers Pollution Prevention Act, 1876, embodied the recommendations of the Royal Sanitary Commission and the Rivers Pollution Commission. The former consolidated, with amendments, the general law relating to water sivpply by local authorities in those Acts which it repealed, and incorporated the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1863, and certain sections of the Act of 1847. The provisions of the Act relating to water supply are contained in sections 51 to 70, and are still in force. Local authorities are empowered to supply water to the whole or any part of their districts, but not within the statutory limits of supply of a water company, so long as the company are able and willing to supply. They may also supply the authorities of adjoining districts with the consent of the Local Government Board. The Board are also authorised to unite by means of Provisional Orders districts or contributory places for the purpose of procuring common supplies XV11 of water, Local authorities are empowered to construct and maintain waterworks, to lease, or, subject to the consent of the Local Government Board, to purchase waterworks and water rights, and to contract with any person for a supply. Further, all existing sources and works used for gratuitous supplies are vested in local authorities. Section 299 of the Act provides that, where inquiry by the Local Government Board in consequence of complaint shows that a local authority lias failed to carry out its duties regarding water supply, that danger to the health of the inhabitants arises from the insufficiency or unwholesomeness of the supply, and that a proper supply can be got at reasonable cost, the Board may enforce the fulfilment of those obligations. The Rivers Pollution Prevention Act, 1876, makes provision for securing the purity of rivers and streams. The Limited Owners Reservoirs and Water Supply Further Facilities Act, 1877, enables landowners with limited interests to charge their estates with the cost of constructing waterworks, and to supply water to local authorities by agreement. The Public Health (Water) Act, 1878, requires rural authorities to provide or enforce the provision of satisfactory supplies of water for all occupied dwelling-houses within their districts, and to ascertain periodically the condition of water supplies in any parish or part of a parish. It also requires that no new house in a rural district shall be occupied unless it has within a reasonable distance an available supply of wholesome water siifficient for the needs of the household. The Local Government Board are empowered to invest urban authorities with any or all of the powers and duties of rural authorities under the Act. The Select Committee which considered this Bill reported that many points of great importance which were not dealt with by the Bill had been brought to their notice, and while they did not feel justified in dealing with them in the Bill, they recommended : That the Local Government Board should be authorised to issue Provisional Orders which, when confirmed by Parliament, would empower local authorities to purchase water rights compulsorily. That where local authorities provided a water supply, rates should be charged on the consumers at a maximum of 2s. and a minimum of 6d. in the on the rateable value of the house. That a local authority should be empowered to guarantee 10 per cent, for three years of the cost of the mains and pipes to be laid down by a water company, or 7 per cent, until the water rates and rents are sufficient to pay the company a proper return. That section 52 of the Public Health Act, 1875, should be made more explicit (see paragraph 68). That where a company or corporation go to a rural district for water, Parliament should, before giving the powers sought, be informed of the wants of the district from which the water is taken, or .through which the mains pass, in order to make provision for those districts. 47. Return of 1879.- In 1879 a Parliamentary return was issued showing the means by which drinking water was supplied in the 944 urban sanitary districts then existing in England and Wales. Information was given respecting the sources, works (filtration, reservoirs, &c.), quantities of water supplied and used daily, constancy and sufficiency of supplies, and the Act or other authority under which the works were executed, but this information was very incomplete in districts where supplies were furnished by water companies. From the return it appears that at that time piped services were furnished by local authorities in some 413 urban districts, and by companies or private undertakers in 290 districts, while there was no piped supply in 241 districts. In many cases only small parts of the district were supplied by piped services, but in several of these districts works were in progress for the provision of improved supplies. 48. Manchester and Liverpool Acts, 1879-80. The claim of local authorities to a supply of water from a conduit running through or near their district to supply another district was recognised by Parliament in 1879. The Manchester Corporation Water Act of this year contained a clause, which was introduced by the Parliamentary Committee on the Bill, enabling authorities of districts near the aqueduct from Lake Thirlmere to Manchester (a distance of 96 miles) to obtain supplies therefrom under certain conditions. A clause in the Liverpool Corporation Waterworks Act, A C.198 XV111 1880, secured similar supplies for certain districts on the aqueduct from Lake Vyrnwy to Liverpool. 49. Returns of 1882, 1883 and 1888. A Parliamentary return issued in 1882 showed, as regards the municipal water undertakings of Birmingham, Bradford, Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester, the area, population, and rateable value of the district supplied, the average daily supply, and the average daily quantities of water supplied (a) per head for domestic purposes, and (ft) for other purposes, the estimated daily- waste of water, and certain financial particulars. A return issued in 1883 contained further information respecting the financial particulars given in the return of 1882. A return issued in 1888 contained similar information to the return of 1882 respecting the water supplies of 16 large towns in England and Wales. 50. Legislation of 1883 to 1897. The Public Health Act, 1875 (Support of Sewers) Amendment Act, 1883, enables local authorities to safeguard their water- works from injury by mining operations. The Water Companies (Regulation of Powers) Act, 1887, restricts the powers of water companies as to cutting off domestic water supplies. The Local Government Act, 1894, which established parish councils, empowers them to utilise any well, spring, or stream within their parish, and to provide facilities for obtaining water therefrom, but without interfering with the rights of any corporation or person- or the obligations of district councils respecting supply of water. Section 16 of the Act provides that in cases of default by district councils respecting water supply, parish councils may complain to county councils, whose powers are similar to those of the Local Government Board under section 299 of the Public Health Act, 1875. The District Councils' Water Supply Facilities Act, 1897, enables landowners to charge on their lands contributions to district councils for works of water supply. 51. Seioage Disposal Commiss Ion, 1898. A Royal Commission appointed in 1898 to inquire into the treatment and disposal of sewage in their reports of 1901, 1903, and 1908 recommended the formation of Rivers Boards controlled by a central administrative authority. In the opinion of the Commission the constitution of these authorities was essential for the protection of rivers from pollution and for the safeguarding of water supplies, and their dtities should include the collection of information as to the water available and the need of water in various parts of the country. The recommendations of the Commission are referred to at greater length in paragraph 112. 52. Return of 1899. The Municipal Corporation (Reproductive Undertakings) Return of 1899 applied to the 265 municipal boroughs existing at that time, of which 173 had waterworks undertakings. The return gave the capital of these under- takings, the average annual income and expenditure, the average net profit and the capital charges. The total capital of the 173 water undertakings was 48,000,OOOL, all but 2,000,0007, of which was borrowed. About 6,000,OOOZ. had been paid off or paid to sinking funds, leaving about 40,000,OOOZ. of loans outstanding in 1899. The average annual income of the undertakings is given as 2,644,937?., the average expenditure as 902,612?., and the average annual net profit as ], 744,361?. The capital charges (principal and interest) amounted to 1,699,322?., and 15,211?. was set apart for depreciation. 53. Salmon Fisheries Commission, 1902. The Royal Commission on Salmon Fisheries in 1902 concurred in the recommendation of the Sewage Disposal Commis- sion for the constitution of a supreme Rivers Authority as a means of securing the purification of rivers. They were also of opinion that in order to maintain the volume of water in rivers further powers were required for regulating the use of sluices and preventing the depletion of streams. 54. Return of 1909. The Return as to Municipal Trading in the United Kingdom, issued in 1909, included a brief description of the municipal waterworks undertakings of 25 large towns in England and Wales. 55. The, Ro;/al Commission on Canals and Waterways, appointed in 1906, made a report in 19lO on the water supplies of canal routes, in which they discussed the existing smpplies, the new supplies, and compensation water that would be necessary if the improvements they recommended in inland waterways were carried out. XIX 56. Select Committee on Water Supplies Protection Bill, 1910. This Bill proposed to restrict the powers of authorised water undertakers (I) by prohibiting the acquisi- tion of fresh supplies without specific Parliamentary authority ; (2) by rendering the undertakers liable to give compensation for injury to private supplies caused by their works ; and (3) where water was taken from one district to supply another, by conferring on the local authorities of the districts from and through which the supply is taken the right to demand a supply from the works of the undertakers on terms to be agreed or fixed by the Local Government Board. A Joint Select Committee of both Houses of Parliament appointed to consider the Bill reported that it was inadvisable to restrict the abstraction of underground water by general legislation, as Parliamentary control could be more effectually secured by means of particular clauses in special Acts. The Committee were satisiied that the pumping operations of water authorities caused serious damage to private property, but as industrial and commercial enterprise undoubtedly did the same, they felt unable to make any recommendation on the subject of compensation without further investigation. On the question of distribution of water in transit, the Committee refrained from making a recommendation that a supply should be afforded to districts through which the mains passed, though they thought that local authorities of districts naturally having recourse to the source proposed to be appropriated should be entitled to a supply therefrom. The Committee drew attention to the inadequate powers of local authorities for the compulsory acquisition of water rights, which could only be obtained, otherwise than by agreement, by urban authorities through special Acts of Parliament. They endorsed the recommendation of the Select Committee on the Public Health Act (1875) Amendment Bill, 1878, that the Local Government Board should be empowered to issue Provisional Orders enabling local authorities compulsorily to acquire water rights. In view of the lack of reliable information as to water supply, especially from underground sources, and the manner in which local supplies were utilised, the Committee stated that there was urgent need for a comprehensive survey of the water supply of the country, and for the adoption of measures to conserve and dispose of water to the best advantage. They endorsed the recommendations of the Water Supply Commission, 1869, as to appropriation of sources, the Metropolitan. Water Supply Commissions, 1893 and 1899, as to the keeping of suitable records by water undertakers, and of the Sewage Disposal Commission as to the formation of rivers or watershed boards controlled by a central administrative authority. As the result of the Committee's report no further action was taken on the Bill, but later in the same year the present return was ordered by Parliament. The Committee's report is further referred to in paragraph 112. 57. Public Health (Acquisition of Water) Bills. -In 1911 the Government introduced a Bill to enable the Local Government Board by Provisional Order to give compulsory powers to local authorities for the purpose of the acquisition of water rights. The Bill did not proceed. It was re-introduced with some alterations in 1912, but it again failed to make progress. THE PRESENT RETURN. b 2 THE PRESENT RETURN. 58. Explanatory Notes. The abbreviations used in the return are as follows : C.B. = County Borough. B. = Borough (other than a County Borough . P.C. = Parish Council. R.D. = Eural District. R.D.C. = Rural District Council. T.C. = Town Council. U.D. = Urban District. U.D.C. = Urban District Council. Titles of Orders. The Provisional Orders issued by the Board of Trade under the Gas and Water Works Facilities Acts, and by the Local Government Board under the Public Health Act, 1875, are, for the sake of brevity, described under the heading " Powers " as e.g., " Aldeburgh Order, 1871," &c., without reference to the Confirmation Acts in which they are included. Date of Return. For the purpose of this Return the Board sent out over 3,000 schedules. Most of these were received filled up during 1911, but some were not returned completed until the end of 1913. In order to bring the information up to date the Board at the end of 1913 sent proofs of the Return to all local authorities and water undertakers, and the information now given is for the most part corrected to January 1914. Particulars of some undertakings received too late for insertion in their proper place are given as addenda to the Return, while other late information appears as footnotes. Reliability of Return. The information given in the schedules has been checked as far as possible, the annual reports of medical officers of health for 1913 and other papers in the Board's possession being consulted. The powers and limits have been verified by reference to local Acts and Orders. The area, population, and number of inhabited houses in each urban district mentioned in Part II. are taken from the Reports of the Census of 1911 ; the number of houses in each parish of a rural district, whicli is not given in the Census Reports, has been compared with the number of families given in those Reports. Particulars which cannot be checked are the quantity of water derived from each source and the additional amounts obtainable, the sufficiency of the pressure and the constancy of the supply, and the quantity and quality of the water supplied. In some instances information contained in the annual reports, and complaints which have been made to the Beard indicate that the evidence of the schedules on the question of the purity and sufficiency of a supply is not always reliable. Wales and Monmouthshire. In Part I. of the Return it has been found impracticable to classify separately the undertakings in Wales and Monmouthshire. Some undertakers in England derive water from sources in Wales, and some supply water both in England and Wales. In Part II. the districts are arranged in counties, alphabetically, but the Welsh counties, including Monmouthshire, are placed together, after the English counties. Undertakings. 59. Undertakings. In accordance with the terms of the Order of the House of Commons, the present Return has been divided into two parts. Part I. gives parti- culars of every water undertaking in England and Wales, and Part II. shows how each district and parish is supplied with water. The undertakings in Part I. are arranged in five different sections, as follows : Section I. Undertakings of separate local authorities. ,, II. ,, joint boards and joint committees of local authorities. III. ,, companies with statutory powers. ,, IV. ,, companies without statutory powers. V. private proprietors. The undertakers in Sections I. to IV. have been arranged alphabetically ; those in Section V. alphabetically under the name of the county in which they supply water. The counties are arranged alphabetically, and the Welsh counties, including Monmouthshire, are placed together after the English counties. 60. Definition of " Undertaking " for the purpose of the Return. The pro- vision of works necessary to supply from any natural source water for domestic purposes to not less than 10 houses or to standpipes has been considered an under- XXI taking, whether the supply be given under specific- statutory powers or not, and whether furnished gratuitously or for profit. Supplies which are regulated by special Acts, but in which the water distributed is obtained from other undertakings, have also been included. Particulars are given of the undertakings of 786 separate local authorities, the Metropolitan Water Board and 34 other joint authorities, 200 companies with statutory powers, 81 private companies, and 1,055 private proprietors. 61. Local Authorities' Undertakings. Of the 786 local authorities with separate undertakings, 51 are county borough councils, 151 councils of non-county boroughs, 298 urban district councils, and 286 rural district councils. Two authorities, the town councils of Rurton-on-Trent and Norwich, which do not supply water within their own areas but supply a few houses outside their districts in connection with their sewage disposal works, are not included in these figures. In some cases the undertaking of the local authority supplies only a part of their district ; in the case of most of the rural districts a supply is furnished in one or two parishes only. Some rural district councils supply different parts of their districts from different sources, but these have not been counted as separate undertakings. Some of the largest water undertakings in the country are owned by local authorities. The importance of the undertaking of Manchester Town Council can be appreciated from the fact that the average daily quantity of water supplied is 44 million gallons, of which nearly IS million gallons are obtained from Lake Thirlmere, 96 miles distant. Liverpool and Birmingham also obtain water from very distant sources, and supply respectively ol, -162,000 gallons and 21,705,000 gallons a day. Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield, and Kingston-upon-Hull each supply more than 12 million gallons per day ; 11 other local authorities supply between 5 and 12 million gallons, 65 others between 1 and 5 million gallons, and 17 between and 1 million gallons a day, making a total of 130 local authorities supplying over half a million gallons a day- Five hundred and forty-seven of the local authorities which possess separate water undertakings supply under the authority of the Public Health Act, while the remaining 239 have special Acts. Of the latter, 145 have districts or parts of districts other than their own within their statutory limits of supply. The following table shows the number of authorities of each class with special Acts and the number which supply water in other districts, both within and without their statutory limits, either direct to the consumers or in bulk to other authorities : Councils of Number of Authorities with special Acts. Number of these Authorities supplying Direct to Consumers in other Districts. In bulk to other Authorities. Within Limits. Without Limits. Within Limits. Without Limits. County Koroiijrlis Non-<:oiiiitv lioi-oiijilis Urliaii Districts Rural Districts - 51 72 111 5 43 42 49 23 . 19 23 ] 12 14 28 15 24 1 The majority of local authorities maintaining waterworks under the Public Health Act confine their operations to their own districts, but the Board have sanctioned the supply of water to adjoining districts by 106 local authorities under section 61 of the Public Health Act, 1875 (see paragraph 85). 62. Joint Authorities. The joint authorities are generally composed of repre- sentatives of local authorities combined for the purpose of supplying water to the districts of the authorities represented, but county councils and other public bodies are also represented on the Metropolitan Water Board and the Derwent Valley Water Board. The local authorities represented on joint boards and joint committees for supplying water are the councils of the 29 metropolitan boroughs, 10 county boroughs, 23 other boroughs, 78 urban districts, and 25 rural districts. Apart from the Metro- politan Water Board, which is referred to in paragraph 30, the largest joint undertakings are the Tees Valley Water Board, which distributes 1 5 million gallons daily, and the Derwent Valley Water Board, which supplies just over 10 million gallons daily in bulk to its constituent authorities for distribution by them. XX11 Besides the three boards mentioned there are 14 other joint authorities each of which supplies over half a million gallons daily. Generally speaking, the most important of the joint authorities have been con- stituted under special Acts of Parliament or Provisional Orders under section 279 of the Public Health Act, 1875 ; in the other cases they have been formed by agreement under the Public Health Act, 1875, or the Local Government Act, 1894. 63. Companies with Statutory Powers. The 200 companies with statutory powers comprise 152 which possess special Acts and 48 whose powers are derived from Provisional Orders issued by the Board oi; Trade under the Gas and Water Works Facilities Acts. The last-mentioned companies are generally of minor importance. The South Staffordshire Waterworks Company, supplying 16,090,793 gallons per day, has the fifth largest undertaking in England and Wales. The next largest companies and their daily supplies are Bristol Waterworks Company, 10,278,000 gallons ; Newcastle and Gateshead Water Company, 8,962,000 gallons ; Sunderland and South Shields Water Company, 8,520,000 gallons ; the Borough of Portsmouth Waterworks Company, 8,261,000 gallons; and Staffordshire Potteries Waterworks Company, 7,625,000 gallons. Altogether there are 66 companies each of which supplies over half a million gallons of water daily. Three companies merely distribute water purchased in bulk from other under- takers, while two others did not at the date of the return furnish any supplies. 64. Companies without Statutory Powers. These 84 companies are all of minor importance. The largest supplies known to be distributed by any of them are furnished by the Hetton le Hole and Easington Lane Water Company and by the Whitstable \Vater Company, which each supply 170,000 gallons per day ; the Combe Down Bath and General Waterworks Company comes next with 118,000 gallons per day. In many cases the quantity of water supplied is not known. Nine of the companies merely distribute water obtained in bulk from other undertakings. No less than 24 of the private companies are in the West Riding of Yorkshire, 13 being within the rural district of Skipton. 65. Private Proprietors. The 1,055 undertakings of private proprietors are generally very small and, as a rule, afford supplies only to the property of the proprietors. Particulars of the waterworks of parish councils, voluntary committees, and other undertakings of a private nature are also included in this section. Only 11 private undertakings possess powers under special Acts or Orders ; the most important being that of the Marquess of Exeter, which supplies 171,000 gallons per day, chiefly in the borough of Stamford. 66. Progress of the Provision of Piped Supplies. A comparison of the report of the Commissioners of 1844-5 with the return of 1879 and the present return shows that remarkable progress has been made in the last 70 years in the distribution of water by piped services. The Commissioners of 1844 reported that only 26 of the 50 large towns specially investigated were supplied with water under the provisions of any Act of Parliament and that the supply to these towns was very defective, and in many only extended to a part of the town. In the other towns there was sometimes a piped supply from ancient springs belonging to the corporation or a private individual, but the supplies were generally inadequate to the demands of the population. It was not until cast-iron pipes were introduced and lead pipes became cheaper that the provision of constant supplies at high pressure became possible. With this and with the growth and urbanisation of the population, the demand for a supply of water piped into the houses in the more densely populated districts became insistent, and could be profitably met. At first piped supplies were usually provided by private enterprise, and though in a few places the municipal body undertook a partial supply, the Report of the Commission of 1845 shows that in the few large towns in which there was then a water undertaking it was as a rule in the hands of a company, and sometimes of competing companies. The general legislation of 1848 to 1875 facilitated the provision of water supplies by dispensing with the necessity of a special Act in every case, and the impetus given to local government by the Acts of 1872 and 1875 stimulated the new local authorities to take the water supply of their districts into their own hands. According to the local taxation returns for 1871, the first year of their institution, 250 of the 783 urban authorities then in existence expended money on works of water supply. The Return of 1879, referred to in paragraph 47, shows that in that year 413 out of 944 urban authorities furnished supplies, and that there xxm were piped supplies of some kind in 703 of the districts. In 1899, 173 of the 265 municipal corporations possessed waterworks. The present Return shows that of the 1,130 boroughs and other urban districts outside London included in the Return there were only 29 without a piped supply to a part at least of the district, and these were very small places. 500 urban district councils controlled the water supply of their districts or of a part of their districts as a separate undertaking, and 111 as constituents of a joint board or committee. Many of the urban district councils with separate undertakings furnished a supply in other urban districts, and altogether 822 of the 1,101 urban districts with piped services were supplied municipally. In 309 urban districts or parts of urban districts water was supplied by companies and in 85 by private proprietors. Several urban districts obtain supplies from more than one undertaking. The provision of piped supplies in rural districts has naturally not kept pace with the supply to towns, but in 1914 out of the 12,869 parishes in rural districts 4,87-1 had a piped supply to some at least of their houses. Of the 97 towns with a population over 50,000 at the census of 1911 the following 26 were in 1914 supplied wholly or in part with water by a company : Birkenhead, Bournemouth, Bristol, Burton-upon-Trent, Cambridge, Chester, Dudley, Eastbourne, Gateshead, Gillingham, Great Grimsby, Great Yarmouth, llford, Lutou, Newcastle-on- Tyne, Norwich, Portsmouth, Southampton, Southend-on-Sea, South Shields, Stoke-on- Trent, Sunderland, \Valsall, West Bromwich, West Hartlepool, York. It is not possible to say what portion of the country is supplied municipally and what portion by companies, chiefly because some districts are supplied by more than one undertaker. Birkenhead, for instance, is supplied partly by the town council and partly by the Wirral Company. And in some c.ises local authorities distribute supplies obtained in bulk from companies and vice versa. The North Cheshire Company supply Altrincham and other districts with water obtained from Manchester Corporation, while Crewe Town Council distribute a supply provided by the London and North-Western Railway Company. From the particulars given in this paragraph, it seems likely that about two-thirds of the total population of the country is now supplied with water by municipal bodies, and that only a few million of the inhabitants of England and Wales depend on unpiped supplies. 67. Supersession of Water Companies by Local Authorities. Not only has the provision of a piped supply of water been undertaken by the local aiithority in many districts which depended on private supplies, but water companies providing a piped service have in a large number of cases been superseded by local authorities. Section 63 of the Public Health Act, 1875, enables a water company to sell or transfer its undertaking to a local authority by agreement. Apart from this provision, which has not been extensively used, about 100 special Acts have been passed since 1876 giving power to local authorities in England and Wales to purchase the undertakings of water companies supplying their districts, and in a great majority of cases these powers have been exercised. On the other hand, in a very few instances small water undertakings of local authorities have been transferred under Parliamentary sanction to water companies. The practice of Parliament in giving powers for the compulsory purchase by local authorities of water undertakings belonging to companies has varied with the circumstances of the case. Where companies have come to Parliament for powers or for further powers the local authorities concerned have frequently opposed the Bill in Parliament in order to obtain a clause authorising them to purchase the undertaking and requiring the company to sell on 'certain terms. In other cases local authorities that have desired to purchase the undertaking of a statutory company have themselves introduced a Bill for this purpose, often simultaneously with a Bill introduced by the company to obtain further powers. The principles on which Parliament has generally acted in giving these powers are illustrated by the decision of the House of Lords Committee on the Bill promoted in 1887 by the Sheffield Town Council. The chairman stated : " The Committee have come to a decision that it is expedient that the works of the Sheffield Water Company and the control of the water supply should be transferred to the corporation. They have come to this conclusion on the grounds of public policy. But they do not consider that there has been any proof of mismanagement or failure of duty on the part of the company ; and consequently they think the terms of purchase should be not only fair but liberal." b 4 xxiV On the motion lor the third reading of the Bill an amendment was moved that the Bill be read a third time that day six mouths, on the ground that the company had not failed in their duty, and that iJi such transfers ought to be authorised as matters of public policy the Government should undertake public general legislation on the 1 subject, but after a discussion the amendment was withdrawn. Parliament, however, has not always acted on this principle. Eastbourne and Southampton in 1897, Hartlepool and Norwich in 1898, Hartlepool again in 1901. and Cambridge in 1911, are amongst the larger local authorities which have made unsuccessful attempts to obtain from Parliament powers to supersede water companies. In 1909 the Glamorgan County Council promoted a Bill with the object of forming a large water board to acquire the undertakings of certain water companies and local authorities. The preamble was declared proved by the House of Commons Committee, but the Bill was rejected by the Committee of the House of Lords. Where a local authority whose limits of supply include the district of another local authority comes to Parliament for further powers Parliament lias in a number of cases inserted a provision in the Bill to empower the local authority of the outside district to purchase the portion of the undertaking which is within their district. 68. Limitation of the Power of Local Authorities to Supply their District with Water. The effect of the restriction in section 52 of the Public Health Act, 1875, on the powers of a local authority to supply its district with water is to give a monopoly to a company or local authority with special powers (which for this purpose is deemed to be a company) in whose limits the district is included by the special Act. The undertakers usually profess themselves able and willing to furnish a supply on terms, and the only terms on which they are under an obligation to supply are those of section 35 of the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, which is as a rule incorporated with the special Act. This section provides in effect that the undertakers shall supply any part of their limits if 10 per. cent, of the expense of laying down the necessary pipes is guaranteed to them for three successive years at least. In some places within the limits, but at a considerable distance from the works and mains of the undertakers, these terms have been found prohibitive, and although it has been ascertained that a supply could be obtained at much less cost from another source, the undertakers have insisted on their right to supply on the basis of the 10 per cent, guarantee, and have refused to allow the more economical scheme to proceed. The Select Committee on the Public Health Act (1875) Amendment Bill, 1878, drew attention to the defects of this section, and recommended that where a district within the limits of a company was unsupplied, the local authority should be empowered to require them either to allow the local authority to supply, to supply the district themselves, or to supply water in bulk to the local authority for distribution. This recommendation, which has not been adopted, does not meet the difficulty of the terms on which the company are able and willing to supply. A clause, known as a " re-entry " clause, inserted in some local Acts enacts that if the undertakers are not furnishing or prepared on demand to furnish a sufficient supply of water throughout the district of any local authority within the limits of supply within a specified number of years, the local authority may provide such supply in accordance with the Public Health Act. 1875. This clause, however, has not been found useful in practice, since the undertakers will generally profess themselves prepared on demand to furnish a sxifficieut supply on the terms authorised by the Waterworks Clauses Act. Some further observations on this matter are made in paragraph 83. Powers. 69. Common Law. In England and Wales under the common law every land- owner has the right to use w r ater flowing in known or defined channels, -i.e., the water naturally flowing through, past, or under his land, both for his domestic use and for his cattle, without regard to the effect of such use upon the landowners lower down the stream. Further, he has the right to use the water for any purpose, provided there is no interference with the rights of other landowners either above or below. He cannot, however, lawfully abstract from any stream water for sale or for the supply of the inhabitants of any neighbouring area. As regards underground water not flowing in defined channels, every landowner has the exclusive right to all water obtainable from his laud. The case of Chasemore v. Richards, decided in 1859, confirmed by subsequent cases, of which the best known is Bradford Corporation v. Pickles (1895), establishes the doctrine that water percolating tinder the surface of the ground belongs to the man who can catch it firat, and that there is no remedy in law against the owner of a Well which intercepts water whicli formerly flowed into a stream or another well. From early times many villages and small towns were provided with water by local landowners, and later also by private associations and by companies without statutory powers. The proprietors of these undertakings could only afford piped supplies to consumers by agreement and with the consent of the road authorities and inhabitants. 70. Charters, Warrants, and Special Acts.- Powers to construct waterworks were granted in early times by means of charters, and it was under such authority that some municipalities had established waterworks before 1800. Some of the early undertakings also derived some of their powers from Royal Warrants. But the chief authority for water undertakings before the middle of the 19th century was a private Act of Parliament. The first Act of this kind, as stated in paragraph 31, was that passed in 1541, which gave power to the Mayor and Dean of Gloucester to supply water. Many of the supplies furnished in early times in the metropolis were given on the authority of local Acts, and in several provincial towns the municipal authorities, or more commonly a company, obtained Parliamentary powers to supply water before the middle of the 19th century. In spite of the general legislation of 1848 to 1878, the practice of obtaining special Acts with regard to water supply has continued, and, as may be seen from the entries under " Powers " in Part I. of the Return, the number of special Acts in force is very large. Two hundred and thirty-nine local authorities and 152 statutory companies now possess local Acts relating to water undertakings. In a few cases one local Act onlv regulates an undertaking, but in the great majority of cases in which recourse is had to local legislation more than one Act is in force, and in the case of local authorities provisional orders amending local Acts have often been obtained. In some instances 10 or more local Acts and orders apply to the same undertaking. The eight metropolitan water companies which were absorbed by the Metropolitan Water Board in 1902 had 80 uurepealed local Acts in force, and these still apply in part to the undertaking of the Water Board (see page 103 of Return). 71. Pi-ovisional Orders altering or amending Local Authorities' Acts may be made by the Local Government Board under section 303 of the Public Health Act, 1875. The Board have made many provisional orders under this section empowering local authorities to construct or extend waterworks (where the powers sought do not involve the giving of compulsory powers of acquiring lands or water rights), conferring additional borrowing powers on local authorities for the purposes of their water undertakings, and making other provisions in regard to the supply of water by local authorities too numerous to mention in detail. Public notice has to be given of any proposed order, and a local inquiry is held, at which persons interested have a right to attend and make objections, and the Board, before making the order, must consider any objections which have been made. The order, before becoming law, has to be confirmed by Parliament. 72. General Acts of Parliament. The first general legislation on the subject of water supply was contained in the Towns Improvement Chuises Act, 1847, and the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847 (paragraphs 36 and 37 above). The Public Health Act, 1848 (paragraph 38 above) was the first general Act which enabled local authorities, under certain conditions, to provide their districts with water, but this, and the later Acts which extended its powers, only applied to districts in which they were put in force by the machinery provided by the Acts. The Public Health Act, 1872, divided the whole of England and Wales into sanitary districts, and by the Public Health. Act, 1875, which repealed the Act of 1872, the general powers already conferred upon certain local authorities by the earlier Acts were consolidated and extended to every sanitary authority. This Act and the Public Health (Water) Act, 1878, are the chief general statutes which now regulate the supply of water by local authorities in England and Wales outside the metropolis. The Act of 1878 applies only to rural district councils, but urban authorities may be invested with all or any of its powers by the Local Government Board. As regards companies, the Gas and Water Works Facilities Acts, 1870 and 1873, provide machinery whereby powers for supplying water may be conferred by provisional order of the Board of Trade, which has to be confirmed by Parliament. The Acts themselves do not confer any powers to supply water. XXVI The main provisions of these Acts are set out in paragraphs 45 and 46 of this memorandum. 73. Insufficiency of the General Law. In consequence of limitations upon the powers which may be obtained by undertakers by means of provisional orders under the Gas and Water Works Facilities Acts and section 303 of the Public Health Act, 1875, and as the general powers given by the Public Health Act are insufficient in some cases to enable local authorities to undertake the schemes necessary for supplying their districts with water and to carry on their undertakings iu accordauce with their requirements, it is frequently necessary for both companies and local authorities to have recourse to local Acts. The cost of obtaining a local Act is often considerable, even where the Bill is not seriously opposed, and much in excess of the cost of proceeding under the general law. The cost of a provisional order under the Public Health Act, or of proceedings under the provisions of that Act relating to water supply, is usually trifling, being limited in most cases to the expenses attendant upon the local inquiry which is held by the Local Government Board into the application for the provisional order or for the loan for the carrying out of the works of water supply, as the case may be. Of course, if a provisional order had to be supported against opposition in Parliament the cost might approach much more nearly to that of a local Act. The fact that all the county boroughs with water undertakings (51) have obtained local Acts affords evidence that the powers of the Public Health Act in this matter have not sufficed, at any rate for the larger schemes. 74. Acquisition of Water Rights. One of the chief reasons why recourse is had both by companies and local authorities to special legislation on the subject of water supply is the difficulty which is experienced in acquiring water rights, i.e., the right to take water from any river or stream or from any watercourse flowing in a known or defined channel. For a short time it was thought that water rights could be taken compulsorily by means of provisional orders made under section 176 of the Public Health Act, 1875, and several orders were made accordingly, but in 1877 a Select Committee of the House of Lords decided that such a provisional order was ultra vires, and the Law Officers of the Crown advised that, in view of the protective provisions contained in the Act, and particularly sections 327 and 332, this view was correct. The Select Committee on the Public Health Act (1875) Amendment Bill of 1878 stated that this decision would produce serious inconvenience to sanitary authorities and would necessitate agreements with every riparian owner, lessee, and occupier below a proposed intake. The Committee therefore recommended that the Local Government Board should be empowered to issue provisional orders enabling local authorities to purchase water rights compulsorily, and though this recommenda- tion was repeated by the Select Committee on the Water Supplies Protection Bill, 1910, and though legislation has been introduced on several occasions to carry it out, nothing has so far been effected. At present, under the general law, water rights can only be obtained by agreement with the riparian owners, and in many cases these owners have proved obstructive. In one case one riparian owner out of 25 success- fully prevented a rural district council from providing a much needed supply. As rural district councils have no express statutory power to expend money out of the rates on the promotion of Bills in Parliament (though five have, in exceptional circum- stances, obtained local Acts with regard to water supply), schemes of water supply in rural districts have been abandoned owing to the impossibility of obtaining water rights. It may be observed that the Public Health (Ireland; Act, 1878, empowers the Irish Local Government Board to make provisional orders for the compulsory acquisition of water rights. 75. Borrowing Powers. With regard to local authorities, a further reason for recourse to local legislation may be found in the restriction placed by the latter Act on the borrowing powers of the local authority. Most local Acts contain a provision that loans borrowed under the local Act are not to be taken into account in deter- mining the borrowing power of the local authority under the Public Health Acts, and the borrowing power of the local authority is therefore increased by the full amounts authorised to be borrowed by its local Acts. Limits of Supply. 76. The Public Health Act, 1875, empowers each local authority to supply water within its own district, except where an undertaker already possesses statutory powers to supply. A local authority supplying its own district under this Act may, XXV11 with the sanction of the Local Government Board, supply the authority of any adjoining district. Undertakers having powers under special Acts or orders invariably possess areas or limits defined by the Act or order within which they are authorised to supply water. In the earlier Acts the limits are very variously defined, and usually the exact boundaries can only be ascertained by reference to deposited maps. The vague descrip- tions of the original limits, combined with subsequent changes of administrative areas, make it often difficult to ascertain exactly the present limits of supply. In later Acts the limits are usually defined by reference to civil parishes, and are made to include the whole of each parish. In the present Return the limits have been described in terms of boroughs, urban districts, and parishes in rural districts. Where part of a district or parish is mentioned it is to be understood that the whole area is not within the limits. The following table shows the total number of districts and parishes in England and Wales and the number wholly or partly within the limits prescribed in special Acts : Boroughs and urban districts Parishes in rural districts - Number of Districts and Parishes. Total. 1,130 12,869 Within Limits prescribed in Special Acts. 793 2,879 77. Limits of Local Authorities' Undertakings. Of the 239 local authorities with special Acts or orders, 145 have districts other than their own within their statutory limits of supply. The majority of these are rural parishes, but the authorities of 51 urban districts have 165 other urban districts either wholly or partly within their limits, including the town councils of Bradford with 18, Huddersfield 16, Manchester 10. Barnsley 9, Halifax, Liverpool, and Wolverhampton 8, Stockport 7, Bolton 6, and Nottingham and Rochdale 5. 78. Limits of Joint Authorities. All the joint authorities with statutory powers are authorised to furnish supplies in urban areas, and the limits of 20 joint authorities comprise either the whole or parts of 128 urban districts. In addition, the limits of the Abertillery and District Water Board, when its works are completed, will include four tirban districts at present within the areas of other undertakings. No definite limits are prescribed for the Derwent Valley Water Board, which is empowered to furnish water in bulk to the town councils of Derby, Leicester, Nottingham, and Sheffield, and to various authorities in the counties of Derby and Nottingham. The limits of the Metropolitan Water Board include 55 urban districte, of the Bury and District and the Fylde Boards 9, of the Ashton-uuder-Lyne, &c., Board, 8, of the Hey wood and Middleton Board 7, and of the Accrington and District and the Tees Valley Water Boards 6. 79. Limits of Companies, tOc. Of the 200 companies with statutory powers, 148 are empowered to supply within urban districts, and there are 292 urban districts wholly or partly within their limits. The limits of the South Staffordshire Company include 19 urban districts, Weardale and Consett Company 16, Newcastle and Gates- head Company 12, Colne Valley Company 8, Barnet, South Essex, and Sunderland and South Shields Companies 6, North Cheshire, Rbymney and Aber Valleys, Rickmansworth and Uxbridge Valley, Staffordshire Potteries, and West Cheshire Companies 5. The limits of 6 of the 11 private proprietors with statutory powers each include an urban district. 80. Local Acts of Enrol District Councils. The 5 rural district councils with special Acts mentioned in paragraph 74 are not empowered thereby to supply water outside their own districts. The limits specified in these Acts refer only to the works authorised therein, and do not take away the councils' powers under the Public Health Act to supply other parts of their districts. 81. Overlapping Limits. In some cases two undertakers have concurrent powers of supply in the same parish or district. It appears from the Return that 37 boroughs and urban districts and 72 parishes in 41 rural districts are situated wholly or partly within the limits of more than one undertaking. In these cases the limits actually XXV111 overlap, in others the parish or district is divided between the undertakings. The former are cases in which the limits were fixed by an early Act. It is not now the practice of Parliament to authorise the inclusion of areas within the limits of more than one undertaking. Places actually Supplied. 82. As in the case of limits, the places actually supplied are given in terms of boroughs, urban districts, and parishes in rural districts. The word " part " following the name of a borough, district, or parish may mean that there are outlying houses that are not reached by the mains, or that, although the mains extend all over the district, some of the houses still prefer to take their supply from private wells. It was found impossible to distinguish in the return between these two cases. The City of London and all the Metropolitan Boroughs are returned as wholly supplied by the Metropolitan Water Board, though it is known that many houses in London have private wells and do not use the Water Board's supply, which is, however, available for every house. In many of the districts of greater London supplied by the Board the mains extend throughout the district, but a few houses are returned as supplied from other sources. The number of houses actually supplied by the piped service in each district can be ascertained from Part II., and can be compared with the total number of houses in the district, but where more than one undertaker supplies within a district separate figures are not given for each. Some of the less important piped supplies are to standpipes ; it has not been possible to distinguish these cases. 83. Places within Limits and places actually supplied. The following table shows the number of districts and parishes within the statutory limits of the various classes of undertakers, and the number of them actually supplied with water : Undertakers. Number of Districts and Parishes within statutory Limits. Total. Actually supplied. Boroughs and Urban Districts. Parishes in Boroujrhs and I'viinil Districts. Urban Districts. Parishes in Unral Districts. Local authorities Joint authorities Companies Private proprietors Total 404 128 307 6 876 272 1,824 18 392 122 293 5 534 188 1,213 16 845 2,990 812 1,951 In this table 49 boroughs and urban districts and 100 parishes have been counted twice, and one urban district and two parishes three times, being partly or wholly within the limits of more than one undertaker. In the case of urban districts there are only 33 within statutory limits which are not supplied by the undertaking in whose limits they are placed, and this is to some extent accounted for by the fact that 50 urban districts are within the limits of more than one undertaking. In the case of rural parishes, however, it will be seen that there are no less than 1,039 parishes not supplied by the undertakers within whose limits they have been placed by statute, and in only 108 of these cases can it be assumed that they obtain a piped supply in virtue of their being also within the limits of another undertaking. Thirty per cent, therefore of the rural parishes which have been included within the statutory limits of water under- takings remain unsupplied, and when it is considered that by the mere fact of their being placed within those limits the local authority has lost its right to supply them under the Public Health Acts, provided the undertakers are able and willing to furnish a supply on the terms referred to above (see paragraph 68), it becomes apparent that the interests of a parish may be seriously prejudiced by being included within the statutory limits of a water undertaking. The Local Government Board have been accustomed to report to Parliament on Bills for Local Acts proposing to include new areas within water limits, urging the Committee which is to consider the Bill to satisfy themselves that there is a reasonable likelihood of the company or local authority, as the case may be, being able to provide XXIX a sufficiency of wholesome water for the supply of the places proposed to be taken into the limits, and that there is a bond fi.dc intention to supply them. As a result the limits proposed in local Bills have in a number of cases been curtailed. Nevertheless, cases have occurred in which a parish within the statutory limits of an undertaking which is willing to supply it only on exorbitant terms is badly in need of water, and could obtain it readily and cheaply from a separate scheme of the local authority, or from some other undertaking, and the undertaking with the monopoly will not give up its right to supply. In the case of a Bill promoted by the West Gloucestershire Water Company in 1914 the Local Government Board in reporting to Parliament on the Bill drew attention to the failure of the company to provide a supply in certain parishes in a rural district which had been added to the company's limits of supply by a local Act of 1899, and suggested that if the cost of supplying the parishes with water from the company's works was such that the income to be derived from the supply, at the rates authorised by the Acts of the company, was insufficient to give a reasonable return on the expenditure, the Committee should consider whether the proper course would not be to exclude the parishes from the company's limits, and thus to enable the local authority to provide a supply under the provisions of the Public Health Act, 1875. The Committee, after hearing evidence, took the course suggested by the Board. 84. Undertakers supplying Water outside their Statutory Limits. Special Acts sometimes contain clauses requiring undertakers to furnish supplies outside their limits by way of compensation, and authorising them to supply water in bulk to neighbouring authorities. The number of undertakers with special powers that supply water outside their statutory limits is shown in the following table : Undertakers with Special Powers. Undertakers supplying outside their statutory limits. Directly to Consumers. In bulk to Local Authorities. Local authorities 239 65 60 Joint authorities - 20 6 7 Companies - Private proprietors Total - 200 11 48 8 470 119 75 Twenty-two local authorities, two joint authorities, and two companies been, counted twice in the table, as they supply both directly and in bulk. have 85. Local Authorities supplying Water to the Authorities of other Districts under the Public Health Act, 1875. Section 61 of the Public Health Act, 1875,,enables a local authority to furnish supplies of water outside its district with the sanction of the Local Government Board. The Board have given such a sanction to 106 authorities, and the Return shows that 102 are furnishing supplies outside their districts 86. Places supplied by Joint Committees. Of the 12 joint committees constituted under the Public Health Act, 1875, or the Local Government Act, 1894, one supplies the borough of Tamworth and another the urban district of Highbridge. Parts of Ludgvan and Westbury urban districts are also thus supplied, and one committee supplies water in bulk to three urban district councils. The majority of the supplies, however, are furnished in rural districts, supplies being afforded in 49 parishes. 87. Places supplied by Private Companies and Private Proprietors. In addition to tho?e places which obtain water under statutory authority, a number of districts and parishes are supplied by companies and private proprietors withotit any powers. Of the 84 private companies one supplies a small part of the city of Bath (the greater part being supplied by the Town Council); 3 supply parts of the boroughs of Berwick-upon-Tweed, Colne, and Glossop ; 17 furnish supplies in 15 urban districts, but of these only the 3 small urban districts of Dolgelley, Hetton and Watchet are wholly supplied. The majority of private proprietors supply solely in rural districts. Of the total of 1,055, 17 furnish supplies in boroughs and 110 in urban districts, but in most cases to a very small number of houses only. XXX Sources of Supply, their Nature and Sufficiency. S8. Nature of Sources : Surface, and Underground Supplies. Full details as to the nature of the sources of supply were asked for and were generally obtained from the larger undertakers, biit in many cases the smaller ones gave only meagre information. In every case the situation and nature of the source, the geological formations of each underground source, and the extent of the gathering grounds of upland surface supplies have been described, so far as the particulars given by the undertakers have permitted. The sources of water supply are usually classified as surface supplies from lakes, ponds, rivers, streams and upland gathering grounds, and from springs, and under- ground supplies from wells and boreholes. The supplies from natural outlets issuing from the strata as surface springs are, however, as truly undergixmnd waters as those reached by wells, and their subterranean characters are equally pronounced. In many instances the returns do not distinguish clearly between water derived from springs and water obtained from streams. The source of many streams and rivers can be traced to springs, and many rivers are largely fed by springs throughout their course. A typical instance is the River Thames. It is difficult therefore to make a scientific division of water supplies into surface and underground supplies. For practical purposes, the most important of which is a survey of the supplies of each kind at present used for drinking purposes, the population for which they are used, and the further quantities available, the most convenient division is to class lakes, ponds, rivers and streams and upland sources as surface supplies and wells and springs as underground supplies. 89. Lakes. The principal natural lakes of England and Wales are situated in Cumberland, Westmorland and North \Yales, and some of these have been laid under contribution for purposes of water supply. The Royal Commission appointed in 1S(>0 to ascertain " what supply of unpolluted and wholesome water could be obtained by " collecting and storing water in the high grounds of England and Walts either by the " aid of natural lakes or. by artificial reservoirs, &c." considered a plan to provide the metropolis with water from Thirlmere, Ullswater and Haweswater, with an additional supply from Bala Lake in Merionethshire. The Commissioners made an independent investigation of the quality of the water from the lakes, and found it excellent as regards softness and purity, freedom from mineral contents and organic contamination, but slightly coloured with peat. They rejected the plan partly on this latter ground, and partly because of the uncertainty of the cost, the possible stoppage of flow in the conduit, the necessity of pumping, and the consideration that the sources of supply belonged geographically to the large and increasing population in the north of England. In 1878 Lake Thirlmere was appropriated by the Corporation of Manchester by a Bill which was considered by a Select Committee of the House of Commons. They reported that the lake was a particularly favourable source of supply because of the large rainfall (about 100 inches annually), the scant population in the vicinity, and the consequent abundance and piirity of the water to be derived from it, and because its elevation and situation were favourable for affording a gravitation supply to Manchester. The corporation were authorised to take 50 million gallons a day from the lake. At the end of 1913 they took, according to their return, 17,800,000 gallons a day. Lake Vyrnwy now affords a supply of water to Liverpool, Crummock Lake to Workington, Haweswater to Penrith, and Ennerdale Lake toWhitehaven. 90. Rivers and Streams. Many of the rivers and streams of England and Wales are utilised as sources of water supply, and from the Return it appears that 95 local authorities, 10 joint authorities, and 34 companies obtain water from them. R. Thames. The river affording the largest quantity is the Thames, which, besides furnishing over 130 million gallons a day to the Metropolitan Water Board, supplies 2} million gallons to the South-West Suburban and West Surrey Companies and 1,720,000 gallons to Oxford, while of its tributaries the Lee furnishes 64-J- million gallons to the Metropolitan W'ater Board and the Kennet 3 million gallons to Reading. R. Severn. The Severn supplies Worcester with 1,473,000 gallons per day, Bridgnorth with 240,000 gallons, and in summer Cheltenham with 649,000 gallons daily. Shrewsbury also uses 1,200,000 gallons a day of its water for purposes other than drinking. Of the tribxitaries of the Severn, the Avon furnishes 715,109 gallons a day to Rugby, the Chelt 991,000 gallons to Cheltenham and the Wye 1,000,OOU gallons * A third pipe from Thirlmere to Manchester has now been completed, and about 30,000,000 gallons a day will in future be derived from this source ; see page 89 of the Return. XXXI to Hereford, wkile from the head \vaters of the River Elan, a tributary of the Wye, 72 million gallons a day are available for the supply of Birmingham. R. Derwent. The River Derwent affords over 10 million gallons a day to the Derweut Valley Water Board. R. Tees. The River Tees and its tributary the Balder supply 15 million gallons daily to the Tees Valley Water Board. The Tees also supplies Darlington with 21 million gallons daily. 91. Upland Surfaces. Many undertakers rely upon water collected in reservoirs from the surface of uncultivated land, and such sources have been described in the returns as " upland surfaces," " gathering grounds," or " drainage areas." Iti some cases it is not possible to differentiate between supplies derived from upland surfaces and from rivers, streams, lakes, and springs, but it would appear that 13b' local authorities, 11 joint authorities, and 20 companies depend upon gathering grounds for the whole or part of their supplies. Among the more important of these are the local authorities of Blackburn, Halifax, and Huddersfield, with available supplies per day of 20,973,950 gallons, 13,500,000 gallons, and 9,750,000 gallons respectively, and the l>ury and District Joint Water Board, which obtains 5,962.000 gallons per day. Some undertakings with other sources derive very large quantities of water from gathering grounds, but the quantities obtained from the various sources are not always given. The local authorities include Leeds and Sheffield with available supplies per day of 30,062,025 gallons and 14,883,610 gallons (minimum estimate), and Oldham, which obtains 5,274,000 gallons per day. The Pontypridd and Rhoudda Joint Water Board obtains 3,123,785 gallons per day. Special Acts authorising the abstraction of water from upland surfaces invariably contain provision for compensating persons likely to be injured by this abstraction. Sometimes a money compensation is prescribed, but generally compensation in water, based on one-third of the mean available rainfall of three consecutive dry years. For the purpose of affording this compensation water the construction of special reservoirs, known as compensation reservoirs, is generally necessary. 92. Springs. The actual number of springs from which supplies are obtained by the various undertakings is not known, but from the information in the Return it appears that springs are among the sources of supply of 392 local authorities. 14 joint authorities, and 114 companies. Where the information has been supplied, the geological formations from which the water issues and the situation of the springs are stated in the Return. Though widely distributed in England and Wales, springs are seldom in great enough volume at sufficient elevation for large gravitation supplies. Few of the larger undertakings rely for their supplies solely upon springs, but the borough of Portsmouth Waterworks Company obtain 8,261,000 gallons and the Wisbech Waterworks Company supply 5,188,160 gallons of water per day from springs in chalk, while the local authorities of Lancaster and Bath each depend upon springs yielding about 2,000,000 gallons per day. Springs, however, furnish the staple supplies of many of the smaller undertakings and make important contributions to the supplies of many of the larger. Among these may be mentioned the Metropolitan Water Board, which obtains 1,712,000 gallons per day from the Chadwell Spring in Hertfordshire ; the Staffordshire Potteries Waterworks Company obtains 2,120,000 gallons, and the Bristol Waterworks Company 1,744,000 gallons per day from springs. 93. Underground Sources. Supplies from underground sources, excluding springs, are mostly obtained by means of wells and boreholes. The particulars of these sources given in the Return vary with the details furnished by the undertakers, some of whom describe the wells as " artesian," " bored," " deep," " tube," or with " adits," " headings," "borings," &c. The actual number of wells and boreholes from which supplies are obtained is not known, but where the returns furnished by the undertakers contained such details, their depth, situation, and particulars of the water-bearing strata have been given. More complete information on this point will be published later (see paragraph 112). For some years the supply of underground waters has been on the increase, and the proportion of underground to surface waters used has been constantly growing. Many important undertakings depend wholly upon wells or boreholes for their supplies. Of the local authorities, Kingston-upon-Hull obtains 12,304,000 gallons per day Widnes 5,500,000 gallons, St. Helens 4,700,000 gallons, Birkenhead 4,215,356 gallons, Southampton 3,650,000 gallons, and Warrington 2,543,075 gallons. The Southport, Birkdale, and West Lancashire Water Board obtains 2,658,230 gallons daily from wells, whilst among the companies, Sunderland and South Shields obtains 8,520,000 xx xn gallons per day from wells and boreholes, South Essex 4,804,000 gallons, Great Grimsby 4,295,000 gallons, and Colne Valley 3, 250,000 gallons. A number of under- takings with other sources also obtain large supplies from wells and boreholes, but the quantities derived from the various sources are not always given. The Metro- politan Water Board obtains 41,066,100 gallons per day from wells and borings, Nottingham 7,528,059 gallons, Croydon 4,053,698 gallons, and Wolverhampton 2,751,000 gallons, and the companies include South Staffordshire with 13,793,498 gallons, and Cambridge Univereity and Town with 1,132,000 gallons. The information in the Return shows that 340 local authorities, 13 joint authorities, and 14-2 companies derive supplies from wells and boreholes. 94. Geological Formations from which Underground Supplies are derived. The total amount of underground water supplied by piped services for domestic purposes may be put down very roughly as 285 million gallons a day. This does not include supplies from surface springs, nor water obtained from standpipes. The following table shows roughly the amount derived from each geological formation : Million Gallons daily.

Sufficiency of Sources. As a guide to the sufficiency of sources, an attempt was made to ascertain the average daily quantity of water derived from each source and the further quantity available, and this information is given in the Return in respect of most of the principal undertakings. Some cases, however, only permit of the average daily quantity of water available being given, while in others the quantity of water available in excess of that taken is not known. Many of the smaller undertakers have no information as to the yield of their sources. It is impossible, therefore, to summarise accurately either the total quantity of water actually derived from existing sources or the total quantity available therefrom ; but it will be seen that, in the case of some undertakings, vast quantities of water are said to be available in addition to the amounts actually used. 97. Works.~-The particulars which have been given in the Return under this heading relate to filtration, reservoirs for storage and distribution, and the sufficiency of the pressure. The works of all undertakers naturally include the means of collecting the water and of conveying it to consumers. The nature of the sources sufficiently indicates the nature of the works, such as intakes, borings, wells, pumping stations, which are required in each case, and it has not been thought necessary to include them. As previously stated, it has not been possible to distinguish between supplies conveyed only to standpipes and those piped into dwellings. 98. Filtration. Wherever possible it has been ascertained whether the water is filtered, and, if so, whether the filtration is effected by means of ordinary sand filters or by mechanical, pressure, or patent filters. The rate of filtration through sand (in gallons per square yard per day) has been mentioned where known. It appears from the Return that surface water is generally filtered, whereas underground water, including that from springs, is not. Some important supplies from lakes, rivers, and mountain streams, however, are not filtered, e.g., the Manchester supply from Lake Thirlmere, the Whitehaven supply from Ennerdale Lake, and the supplies to Blackburn, Oldham, Plymouth, Preston, and Swansea from rivers and moorland gathering grounds. The Return shows that 200 local authorities, 14 joint authorities, 89 companies, and 116 private proprietors filter their water. 99. Reservoirs. The primary use of reservoirs is to store water, but while some are used solely for this purpose others, known as service reservoirs, are utilised also for equalising pressure, and others, known as compensation reservoirs, for ensuring the proper flow of rivers and streams. The name or situation and the capacity of every reservoir has been stated whenever possible, but those known to be used solely for purposes of compensation have been omitted. Storage have been distinguished from service reservoirs, but as a reservoir is often used for both purposes it is doubtful whether many of them have been rightly described by the undertakers. It has also been noted whether reservoirs are on a high or low level, and whether they are merely tanks or water towers. The Return shows that only 34 local authorities, 2 joint authorities, and 7 companies do not possess reservoirs. The small capacity of some of the reservoirs belonging to the less important undertakings indicates that they are little more than cisterns. 100. Pressure. Local authorities maintaining waterworks under the Public Health Act, 1875, have under section 55 of that Act a discretion as to whether the water they supply shall be constantly laid on at such pressure as to reach the top storey of the highest houses in the district supplied. The Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, by section 35 lays this down as an obligation on all undertakers with special Acts which incorporate this section of the Waterworks Clauses Act, unless the special Act provides that the water need not be constantly laid on under pressure. This requirement is frequently modified in special Acts and orders, which generally provide that water need not be delivered at a pressure greater than that afforded by gravitation from the service tank or reservoir from which the water is supplied. According to the Return only 47 local authorities, 1 joint authority, and 5 companies furnish supplies with insufficient pressure. 101. Quantity of Water supplied. The average daily quantity of water supplied, both directly to consumers and in bulk to other water undertakings, has generally been given. In some cases the undertakers have professed themselves unable to give the quantity supplied, and their statement as to the adequacy or otherwise of their supply has been accepted. XXXV In several cases the quantity of water stated in the return to be obtained or to be available considerably exceeds the quantity distributed. Where the excess is in respect of water actually obtained it would appear from inquiries made in some typical cases that a great deal more water is taken by the works than is necessary for the supply, and that the excess goes over the overflow into a stream. Where there is an excess of water available, it means that the quantity of water taken is not separated from the quantity that could be obtained, and the excess over the amount distributed may be regarded as the extra quantity that could be obtained by means of the works. A comparison of the actual number of gallons of water supplied per day with the population or number of houses given in Part II. of the Return will often enable a calculation to be made of the number of gallons per head of the population per day supplied from, a particular undertaking. It has not been tho\ight worth while to set out the results of such calculations for the purpose of indicating the sufficiency or otherwise of the supply, since it is impossible to express a standard of sufficiency in gallons per head per day without knowing what is required in each case for trade and public purposes, whether efficient measures are taken to prevent waste, &c. The returns which have been obtained on this subject show the great diversity that exists in different districts in the number of gallons of water per day distributed by an undertaking. In the area of the Metropolitan supply, according to the last report of the Metropolitan Water Board relating to the year 1913-14, just over 36 gallons per head per day is distributed. In a Parliamentary Return of 1882 relating to water supplies of five large towns, it appeared that Liverpool then distributed only 4-|- gallons per head per day, while Bradford distributed 25 gallons and had an estimated waste of 15 to 20 per cent. A similar return of 1888 showed a variation in the amount of water distributed from 8 gallons per head per day in Oldham and 12 gallons in Leicester and Nottingham to approximately 24 gallons per head per day in Kingston upon Hull and in the area of the Newcastle and Gateshead Water Company, 25 in Preston, 27| in Swansea, 28 (including public purposes) in Dublin, 33 in Glasgow, and 35 in Edinburgh. Most of the authorities said the amount of waste per head per day could not be ascertained, but Belfast, Dublin, and Leeds Town Councils put theirs at over a million gallons per day and Glasgow at 15 gallons per head per day. 102. Constancy of Supply. A better test, of the sufficiency of a supply is its constancy, and it will be seen that the great majority of undertakers state that their supply is constant. Only 25 local authorities and 4 companies return their supplies as intermittent, but in a number of small undertakings it is admitted that the supply is inadequate, and in these cases no doubt there is not a constant supply. Section 35 of the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, requires water to be constantly laid 011 at such a pressure as will make the water reach the top storey of the highest houses within the limits, unless the special Act exempts the undertakers from this obligation, which it often does, but this provision is not incorporated with the Public Health Act, 1875. 103. Quality : Chemical and Bacteriological Examinations. The freedom of a water supply from danger of pollution, and from the consequent risk of producing disease, can only be determined by close topographical examination of its sources. Its actual quality can best be judged by the results of chemical and bacteriological examination, and in every case in which the water was subjected to such examination the Board endeavoured to obtain a copy of the latest analysis made. A brief summary of the results of these analyses has been inserted in the Return to illustrate the quality of the water ; the copies of analyses have been retained by the Board amongst their records. In some cases in which the water is only occasionally examined the last analysis is too old to be of value. In other cases the details of the analysis were given without any comment by the analyst on the quality of the water, and in the absence of information as to the circumstances in which the sample analysed was taken it has been considered inadvisable to insert in the Return an opinion on the figures of the analysis. From the Return it appears that the quality of the water supplied, in some cases from one particular source amongst several, by 20 local authorities and 2 joint authorities is not satisfactory, whilst that supplied by 5 other local authorities is liable to pollution. 104. Quality of Water from Upland Surfaces. The purity of water derived from these sources depends upon the freedom of the gathering grounds from contamination from human habitations, farm buildings and live stock. The Committee on British c 2 XXX VI Forestry, which reported in 1902, drew the attention of local authorities deriving their water supplies from gathering grounds owned by them to the advantages and profits to be derived from planting the catchment areas with trees, not only to contribute to the retention of the rain and assist in regulating the water supply, but to help to purify the water, and at the same time to yield a regular income on the capital expended. In connection with this report the Local Government Board obtained a return in 1903 showing which of the local authorities owning waterworks had acquired the freehold or long leasehold of the catchment areas from which their water supplies were derived. This return, which was not published, showed that at that time 5 joint boards and 74 town and district councils owned or had a long lease of a part or all of their gathering grounds. Where adequate steps are taken to free the gathering grounds from risk of pollution, the water from these sources is as a rule exceptionally pure. But where, as often, the gathering ground is of a peaty nature there is a risk that the peat may discolour the water and render it turbid, and though this may not detract from its quality it is apt to create a prejudice against it. A great part of the supply to Rhondda Urban District was at one time very discoloured from this cause, and the inhabitants resorted to neighbouring springs and rivulets, which were exposed to contamination, for their supply, with the result that outbreaks of typhoid fever occurred. The Commissioners of 1866 rejected Mr. Bateman's plan for bringing water to London from Wales partly because they thought that coloured water would be unacceptable to the inhabitants of London. Such water requires to be filtered, with or without previous treatment by a chemical which will precipitate the colouring matter. 105. Action on Lead. The chief danger of moorland waters is the tendency to dissolve lead which has been found to exist in waters derived from a soil containing peat, which usually have an acid reaction. The soft peaty water of the moors of Yorkshire and Lancashire are particularly acid. Such waters have in many cases caused serious attacks of lead poisoning among consumers of the water when delivered without treatment through lead pipes. The capacity of drinking waters to dissolve lead and to cause lead-poisoning has frequently been investigated by the Board. In his report for the year 1890 the medical officer to the Board estimated that upwards of 600,000 persons in the West Riding of Yorkshire aloue appeared to be, at one time or another, liable to lead poisoning by the drinking of water supplied in their districts. The latest special reports on the subject are those of Dr. Houston, published in 1903. In 1909 the Board obtained detailed information from local authorities in whose districts water from moorland sources was supplied as to the action of the water on lead and the steps taken to counteract such action, with particulars of any cases of lead-poisoning which had occurred in their districts as a result of drinking water from such sources. The results of this inquiry, which were published as an appendix to the Annual Report of the Board's Medical Officer for 1908-9, showed that most of the undertakers supplying water from moorland sources took steps to treat the water with lime or whiting to counteract the tendency to dissolve lead, while in some instances lead service pipes were prohibited. These results are confirmed by the present Return, which shows that nearly all of the undertakers whose water acts on lead require galvanised iron pipes or treat the water with soda, whiting, lime, or chalk. In several recent local Acts which authorise the abstraction of water from moorland gathering grounds Parliament has required the insertion of a provision compelling the undertakers to treat the water so as to prevent its acting on lead before distributing it. In modern schemes of water supply from moorland sources the precaution has been taken of removing all beds of peat within the area of the reservoir. 1,000,000 cubic yards of peat have been removed from the area to be covered by the Alwyn reservoir of the Birkenhead Corporation, and 100,000 cubic yards from the Delph reservoir of the Bolton Corporation. The fact that a water supply is derived from a peaty subsoil does not, however, necessarily make it plumbo-solvent at all times. Whitehaven Town Council obtain their water supply from Ennerdale Lake, and although the catchment area of the lake is covered with peat, it was found in the course of an investigation of an outbreak of enteric fever in Whitehaven in 1902 that water from the lake showed no plumbo- solvent tendency at that time. Consequently Penrith Urban District Council, who derive their water supply from Haweswater, a lake 24 miles due east of Ennerdale Lake with a similar catchment area, gave up treating their water with lime, and no action on lead has apparently since been observed in this water. XXXV11 106. Hardness. The total and permanent hardness of the water is given in each case in which it could be ascertained in degrees, according to Clark's scale. In some cases where the water is very hard a softening process is adopted, but it will be seen that many of the waters supplied are of a high degree of permanent hardness. I 'ART II. 107. Part II. of the, Return shows how every district and parish in England and Wales is supplied with water. The districts are arranged in counties, and the Welsh counties, including Monmouthshire, appear together after the English counties. County boroughs have been included in the geographical county within which they are deemed to be situated, and with the other urban districts in the county are arranged in alphabetical order, and these are followed by the rural districts with their respective parishes also in alphabetical order. The districts are given as they existed at April 1914. They comprise London, 80 county boroughs, 244 other boroughs, 806 urban districts, and 650 rural districts with 12,869 parishes. 108. Area and Population. The area and population of each district and parish inserted in the Return are those given in the reports of the census of 1911, but as far as possible corrections have been made for changes of area up to April 1914. 1 09. X innber of Houses. The number of inhabited buildings used as dwellings as shown in the census report has been given in the Return for all urban areas. Similar figures are not available in respect of each rural parish, and the figures furnished by the local authorities have therefore been inserted and have been checked with the number of families in each .parish as given in the census report, which probably corresponds closely with the number of houses in rural parishes. 110. Number of Houses supplied from Piped Service. The number of houses in each district and parish supplied from a piped service by the undertakers mentioned in Part I. appears in Part II. In addition some private proprietors supplying water to less than 10 houses have also been included in Part II. Information respecting the number of houses supplied has in each case been obtained from the local authority. The following table shows the number of districts and parishes supplied by various undertakers : Undertaker. Boroughs and Urban District >. Parishes in Rural Districts. Local authorities 822 2,331 Companies Private proprietors 309 85 1,395 1,505 Districts which are supplied by more than one class of undertaker have been counted more than once in this table. As stated in paragraph 66 a piped service is provided within 1,101 of the total 1,130 boroughs and urban districts and in 4,874 of the 12,869 parishes in rural districts throughout England and Wales, and only 29 boroughs or urban districts are at present without any piped supply. Sixty-seven urban areas, however, have no piped service to more than 50 per cent, and 320 to more than 5 per cent, of the houses in the district. Approximately 62 per cent, of the rural parishes are without piped supplies. For the purpose of the Return it has been found necessary to ignore supplies brought from a distance in pipes to single country houses, though where such a supply is made available for 10 houses or more it has been included as an " undertaking." 111. Where there is no Piped Service. A general statement of the sources, quality and adequacy of supplies where there is no piped service has been given in respect of each district and parish. Since many parishes depend on more than one source, and the quantity and quality of the supply from each source necessarily vary considerably, any general summary of the nature, quality and quantity of the unpiped supplies in a particular parish must be to a large extent misleading. Moreover, in a great many rural parishes no systematic action has been taken to ascertain the quality of the various unpiped sources of supply. Many of the wells in use would, no doubt, be found on examination to be liable to pollution and unsafe for drinking, but where they have been used for years without untoward results they are generally regarded by "the inhabitants and the council as pure and sufficient. The chief sources of c. 3 rxx vm un nined supplies are wells, which have been variously described as " artesian," bored/" tube," "deep," "dip," "draw," "surface," "shallow," " very shallow," "public," "private," "pump," or simply as " wells." These descriptions have been omitted 'in the Return, as it is not clear that they are used in the same sense in different parts of the country. This is especially the case with regard to " deep " and " shallow " wells. In order to distinguish between deep and shallow wells the Rivers Pollution Commission, in their report on domestic water supplies in 1874, classified all wells less than 50 feet as shallow, but the character of the stratum from which the water is derived is often more important than depth in feet when determining whether a well should be described as deep or shallow. Wells, no doubt, provide most of the unpiped supplies of the country, and most of them are shallow in the sense that their water is derived from the subsoil which is frequently liable to pollution from privies, leaking sewers, cesspools, drains, refuse heaps, and other sources of contamination in their neighbourhood. Many epidemics in rural districts have been traced to water derived from such wells. Many villages possess public wells, which are generally fitted with pumps. These supplies, which have existed in some cases from time immemorial, were vested in the local authority by section 64 of the Public Health Act, 1875. Springs are largely utilised as sources and the supplies obtained from them are generally described as adequate and of good quality. Supplies are in some places obtained direct from rivers, streams, canals, lakes, ponds and gathering grounds. Streams are variously described as " becks," " brooks," "burns," " mill races," and "rivulets," and lakes as "meres," while other unpiped supplies are returned as derived from "moorlands," " uplands," " ditches," " dykes," "field drains," "land drains," " reens," " rhynes," "spouts," "surface pits," and " ponds." All these sources- are often liable to pollution, and as the water is, as a rule, used without filtration, the supplies must be regarded as generally indifferent. Rain-water is the sole means of supply in some places, while in others it contributes largely to supplies where there is no piped service. The quality and sufficiency of this supply depend mainly upon the methods of collection and storage. In a few instances water is obtained from colliery workings and mines, and in one case from water cress beds fed by artesian wells. The only supply to four houses in the parish of Tankersley, in Wortley Rural District, consists of condensed steam, which is said to be not very satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS. 112. Utility of the Return. The Return may be regarded as the first instalment of the detailed and comprehensive investigation of the whole subject of surface and underground water supplies which has been recommended by various Royal Com- missions and Committees. The Joint Select Committee on the Water Supplies Protection Bill in 1910 referred to the apprehension expressed by several witnesses that " the water supply of the country is not being utilised to the best advantage, " owing to the want .of information on the subject of the general water supply, " particularly the subsoil supply ; the haphazard and arbitrary fashion in which local " sources of supply are sometimes wasted, sometimes withheld from use, and some- " times appropriated for the benefit of other, and often distant, places without regard " to the needs of the locality from which the water is taken or of the country as a " whole." The Committee were struck by the absence of trustworthy, and, indeed, often of any information as to the subsoil water supply available in any particular district, and as to the effect of rainfall on the water levels in various parts of the country. They saw some reason to doubt whether the powers for protecting rivers from pollution possessed by local bodies are effectively exercised by them. They considered that a remedy for this state of things was urgently called for, and they thought that it might be found by creating an organisation empowered to inquire into the whole question of surface and underground water supplies from a comprehensive standpoint ; to supervise the future allocation of supplies, and to serve as an authoritative adviser to Parliament in the consideration of particular schemes. They point out that this suggestion is really no new one. In 1869 the Royal Commission on Water Supply recommended " that no town or district should be " allowed to appropriate a source of supply which naturally and geographically " belongs to a town or district nearer to such source, unless under special circum- " stances which justify the appropriation." XXXIX In 1893 the Royal Commission, on Metropolitan. Water Supply drew attention to the importance of procuring accurate information as to the effect of pumping from the chalk on the level of the water in the wells from which it is pumped, and urged that definite obligations should be laid ou water authorities to keep and supply such records. The Royal Commission on Water Supply within the limits of the Metro- politan Water Companies (1399) concurred in this recommendation, and added : " We " do not think it necessary to specify in detail the observations which should be kept, " because we suggest later on in this Report that the Local Government Board should " have a general power of requiring the Companies to supply information as to their " works." A more specific recommendation as to the creation of a Water Authority is contained in paragraph 31 of the Interim Report of the Royal Commission on Sewage Disposal (published in 1901), which runs as follows: :< We are of opinion that the " general protection of our rivers is a matter of such grave concern as to demand the " creation of a separate Commission, or a new department of the Local Government " Board, which shall be a Supreme Ilivers Authority dealing with matters relating to " rivers and their purification." The question was further developed in the Third Report (referred to above) of the same Royal Commission, which was published in 19U3. In paragraph 44 of that Report it was stated : " In our opinion a properly equipped Central Authority is " essential, and we unhesitatingly recommend the creation of such an Authority." And in paragraph 48 : " The work of the Central Authority will be so intimately " connected with the work of the Local Government Board that it will be desirable " to make it a new department under the Local Government Board rather than an " entirely separate department." The same Report goes on to recommend the creation of Rivers Boards throughout the country, to be formed of Joint Committees of County Councils, each having jurisdiction over the whole of a watershed and river basin. The Central Authority would ascertain what grouping of counties was most effective, and then take steps to constitute Rivers Boards for these areas. With the aid of the Rivers Boards, the Central Authority would collect the information available throughout the country in regard to waste of water by pumping from mines, the use of water in industrial works, and the abstraction of water from one district for the supply of another. The Report stated in conclusion: "We entirely agree that the collection of such information " should precede the consideration of the question whether legislative interference " in regard to these matters is desirable." Finally, the Fifth Report of the same Royal Commission summarises their recommendations on this subject as follows (paragraph 356) : ' That ultimate control " should be vested in an adequately-eqtupped Central Administrative Authority, and " that, as far as practicable the local Rivers Board should, in accordance with regula- " tions framed by the Central Department, act as a first tribunal. Among the more " important questions which have to be dealt with under the new conditions of " administration which we are contemplating are the following : ... (iii) the " protection of water supplies from pollution ; (iv) the collection of information as " to the water supplies available in various parts of the country ; (v) the collection " of information as to the need of water in various parts of the country." The Committee state that they cannot find that any effective action they may indeed say any action at all has been taken on these repeated recommenda- tions, all of which assert the same principle, viz., that there is urgent need for a survey, at once comprehensive and in detail, of the water supplies and water needs of the country and for the adoption of measures for conserving the supply and disposing of it to the best advantage. A number of witnesses, confirming the recommendations of these Royal Commissions, have pointed out to the Committee the desirability of establishing some authority to take cognizance of all questions, both atmospheric and geological, which affect water supplies, and to serve as an authoritative referee when in any future inquiries before Parliamentary Committees the allocation of sources of supply comes in question. With this view the Com- mittee express their entire agreement, and they strongly recommend firstly the establishment (within the Local Government Board or independently as may seem best to the Government) of such a Central Administrative Authority as is con- templated in paragraph 356 of the Fifth Report of the Royal Commission on Sewage Disposal (quoted above) ; and secondly the division of the country into watershed areas, and the appointment for those areas of local Representative Boards, who, c4 xl subject to tiie guidance and control of the Central Authority, should prosecute -ysteinatic and continuous inquiries into the water supply of their jurisdiction, take all necessary measures to husband such supplies, both surface and subsoil ; secure their preservation from pollution ; and advise on their allocation for sanitary, industrial, and other purposes. In amplification of the information given in the Return and this preliminary memorandum the Board's Geological Adviser, Mr. J. B. Hill, is preparing a memoir, which will be published separately, as to underground and surface supplies. The underground supplies will be briefly described according to the geological formations, including the depths at which the water bearing strata are struck and the natural rest-level to which the water attains, and in typical instances the fluctuations in the water-levels affected by pumping. The quality of the water yielded by the respective formations will be illustrated by analyses. The extent of the outcrops of the chief water bearing strata will be represented by sketch maps, the more important of which will be accompanied by horizontal sections, and will show their underground extensions within the reach of deep wells or bores. The spring supplies will also be sub-divided, showing the geological formations from which they issue, and the qualities of these waters will be illustrated by analyses. The surface supplies will be grouped according to drainage areas. The characters of the stream supplies as determined by the geological formations which they traverse will also be shown. The drainage areas into which the surface supplies are grouped will be represented on a sketch map. 113. The main facts brought out by the Return may be summarised as follows: (1) Water is now supplied by a piped service practically to every densely populated place in England and Wales, and most of these supplies are wholesome and adequate. There are still, however, a very large number of niral parishes, some small urban districts, and many outlying houses in larger urban districts, which depend for their water on private sources. (Paragraph 66.) (2) Though some considerable undertakings are still in the hands of companies, the greater part of the population which has a piped service of water is now supplied municipally. (Paragraph 66.) (3) The powers of the general law have not sufficed to give local authorities or companies all the powers necessary for their undertakings. The chief defect in the general law is that it provides no machinery for taking water rights compulsorily. (Paragraphs 73 and 74.) (4) A great many rural parishes have been put by special Acts into the limits of undertakers who do not supply them, which, in view of the provisions of the Public Health Act, 1875, and section 35 of the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, may seriously prejudice them in obtaining a supply on terms which they can afford. (Paragraphs 68 and 83.) (5) In the case of some undertakings large additional quantities of water are available beyond the amounts taken and distributed ; in some instances a great deal of the water taken by the works runs to waste. (Paragraphs 96 and 101.) 114. Water Supplies from distant Sources. It has been seen that many towns now depend for their water on very distant sources. The Manchester supply from Lake Thirlmere is brought 96 miles, the Birmingham supply from the Elan Valley 80 miles, the Liverpool supply from Lake Vyrnwy 66 miles. Leicester, Nottingham, Derby, and Sheffield now derive some of their supplies from the head-waters of the Derwent. Bradford obtains water from the Nidd Valley ; Birkenhead is constructing a new supply from the River Alwyn. Barnsley, Batley, Cardiff, Tynemouth, and the Fylde Water Board all use sources which belong geographically to other areas. Water Bills have frequently been opposed in Parliament on the ground that they proposed to appropriate waters which did not belong geographically to the district to be supplied. As long ago as 1865 the House of Commons rejected a Bill on this ground. The provision recommended by the Royal Commission of 1869, and inserted in some Acts, requiring the undertakers of a distant supply to furnish water to districts on the line of the aqueducts, does not fully meet this objection. The Tendring Hundred Water and Gas Act, 1912, contained a provision, obtained by the Essex County Council, prohibiting the company from supplying water derived from any source in Essex in bulk or otherwise beyond or for use beyond that county without the consent of the county council. xli I I "), tiffed of New Works nn exlstiny Supplies. SerioUs questions in the matter 1 of water supply arise in connection with the utilisation of new sources in proximity to existing sources of water supply. In the case of surface supplies, it has been seen (paragraphs 81 and 91) that provision is made by Parliament in passing special Acts for compensation water. This principle has not been generally applied to underground supplies, though the effect of sinking a well and using powerful pumping machinery has often been to affect seriously the level of the water in neighbouring wells. The practice of the Court of Referees in Parliament used to be to refuse a locus standi to petitioners against a Bill who alleged that they would be injured by the abstraction of underground percolating water. This has now been altered, and a Standing Order empowers the Referees to admit such petitioners to be heard. Since 1899 clauses have been inserted for the protection of existing wells in several Acts authorising pumping schemes. 11.0. J'oircrs for srcurtny Water Supplies to Houses without a. Piped Supply. The provisions of the present law for securing a satisfactory supply of water to houses without a supply arc not wholly adequate. The power of the inhabitants of a district to compel a proper water supply U> be furnished is determined by the provisions of section 35 of the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, within the limits of an undertaking to which that Act applies. In places not within statutory limits the inhabitants' only remedy is that provided by section 299 of the Public Health Act, 1875, which enables them to complain to the Local Government Board that the local authority have made default in providing their district, or a part of it, with a proper supply. In certain cases the Board may make an order, enforceable by writ of Mandamus, limiting the time within which the local authority must perform their duty in the matter. Some orders have been made by the Local Government Board under this section requiring local authorities to provide their districts, or part of their districts, with a proper water supply, and as the Board point out in their annual reports, it frequently happens that they are able to secure a remedy in these cases without the issue of an order. The defect in the provision in the Waterworks Clauses Act as a means of obtaining a piped supply of water has already been referred to in paragraph 08 ; the defect of the Public Health Act is that the machinery is cumbrous and can be set in motion only by a local complaint. In the case of isolated premises it would, of course, be unreasonable to require the local authority to provide a supply of water, and machinery is provided to enable a local authority to compel a supply to be obtained in certain circumstances. A local authority may, under section 62 of the Public Health Act, 1875, compel houses within their district without a proper supply to obtain such a supply where it can be furnished at a cost not exceeding the water rate authorised by any local Act in force in the district, or, where there is no local Act, at a cost not exceeding 2d. a week, or such other cost as the Local Government Board may, on the application of the local authority, determine to be reasonable, and in default of the owner doing the necessary work the local authority may do it. This section, however, apparently applies only where there is a supply which can be brought from the mains of a water company or local authority. The cost referred to in the section is the cost of supply, and does not include the expense of bringing the supply to the premises. It does not, therefore, assist in securing a proper supply for an isolated house, where there is no question of connecting with a company or Local authority's main. Section 70 of the Public Health Act, 1875, enables the local authority to apply to a court of summary jurisdiction to close temporarily or permanently a well, tank, cistern, or pump used or likely to be used for drinking purposes so polluted as to be injurious to health. This section, however, gives no power to require a proper supply to be substituted. In London, by section 48 of the Public Health (London) Act, 1891, an occupied house without a proper and sufficient supply of water is a nuisance, and, if a dwelling-house, is deemed to be unlit for human habitation. There is no similar provision in the Public Health Act, 1875, and it is not clear whether a house without a proper water supply would come within section 91 (i) as premises in such a state as to be a nuisance or injurious to health. The contract which, by section 14 of the Housing, Town Planning, &c., Act, 1909, implies a condition that a house shall be in all respects reasonably fit for human habitation must perhaps be understood to imply that the house is provided with a proper water supply. In rural districts and in the few urban districts to which the power has been given, section 3 of the Public Health (Water) Act, 1878, makes it the duty of the authority to see that every occupied dwelling-house in the district has within a reasonable distance an available supply of A 0.198 A xlii wholesome water sufficient for the consumption and use for domestic purposes of the inmates of the house. Where there is not such a supply and the authority are of opinion that such a supply can be obtained at a cost denned by the section (amounting to 2d. a week, or 3d. a week if the Local Government Board so determine) the authority may take proceedings to secure such a supply, and the owner so required to provide a supply may, under section 4, appeal to the Local Government Board against the requirement. Action under these sections is comparatively rare. A further safeguard of a proper supply 1o houses in rural districts is contained in section 6 of the Act of 1878, which provides that houses in rural districts erected or rebuilt after the date of the Act shall not be occupied without a certificate from the sanitary authority that there is provided within a reasonable distance an available supply of wholesome water. A similar provision is contained in section 48 of the Public Health (London) Act, 1891, but there is no similar requirement applying to urban districts outside London. Moreover, the maximum penalty for occupying a house without a water certificate is 101. only. Outside London, therefore, the position is that rural authorities can, under a penalty of 10L, require a certificate to be obtained that a proper water supply is available be fore new or rebuilt houses can be occupied, while urban authorities cannot ; that all local authorities can compel a public supply to be taken where a main is available within the limit of cost laid down in section (52 of the Act of 1875, and that where there is no main available rural authorities may compel a supply to be furnished for existing houses within the limit of cost laid down in section 3 of the Act of 1878. Beyond those limits in rural districts, and where no main is available in urban districts, there is no power under the general law to compel the provision of a supply of water. 117. The following fresJi legislation lias been suggested on the subject of Water Supply :(!) That Rivers Boards should be established to control the watersheds of the various rivers of England and Wales, the prevention of pollution of their waters and the management and distribution of the water supplies derived from them, and of the underground supplies of their areas. (2) That the Local Government Board should be empowered to make Provisional Orders for the compulsory acquisition of water rights. (3) That in schemes for supplying towns from particular river basins provision should be made for supplies to be furnished to neighbouring villages. (4) That section 52 of the Public Health Act, 1875, should be amended so as to safeguard further the rights of local authorities with regard to parts of their districts placed within the limits of statutory companies and not supplied by them. (5) That local authorities should be empowered to make byelaws regulating the construction of shallow wells. (6) That local authorities should be empowered to make byelaws as to the provision of proper water fittings. (7) That it should be made the duty of the local authority to obtain orders to close polluted wells. (8) That local authorities should be empowered to provide, or to cause to be provided, a supply of water for a group of houses and to apportion the expenses as they deem just among the owners having houses within a reasonable distance of the source of supply, with an appeal to the county council or to a court of summary jurisdiction, (in place of the provisions in the Public Health (Water) Act, 1878). (9) That owners should be compelled to lay on water where a pure and wholesome piped supply is provided. (10) That further power should be given to prevent the occupation of a new house until a proper water supply is provided. (See paragraph 116.) (11) That county councils should be empowered to combine contributory places in different sanitary areas for the joint provision of a supply of water. PAKT I.
