Derby of Connecticut is engaged in a program of constructing addi¬ tional water gas generating equipment and equipment pertinent there¬ to; in addition, the company will install compressors and auxiliary equipment for the purpose of transmitting manufactured gas to Dan¬ bury. Such additional gas generating facilities are intended to provide Derby of Connecticut with sufficient gas capacity to service both its own customers and those of Danbury. Danbury is engaged in the instruction of approximately 25 miles of high-pressure pipe line for the conveyance of gas from the new gas plant of Derby of Connecticut to Danbury. The new pipe line will be capable of delivering 120,000 cubic feet of gas per hour, being sufficient to meet the present re¬ quirements of Danbury, with an allowance for a growth of 150% . In addition, Danbury will construct a new 614,000 cubic foot high pressure holder, together with auxiliary equipment. It is anticipated by Dan¬ bury that its present water gas plant will be maintained as a reserve and that its present coal gas plant will be dismantled. Wallingford proposes to construct a new 300,000 cubic foot main gas holder. The aggregate cost of the foregoing construction programs Is esti¬ mated at $1,340,000, of which the costs to Derby of Connecticut, Dan¬ bury, and Wallingford are estimated at $650,000, $595,000, and $05,000, respectively.
