Excerpt from Report of the Water Supply Commission of Pennsylvania, 1905-06 Since its organization, 88 applications for the incorporation of water companies have been received, of which thirty-seven (37) have been approved, nine (9) disapproved, twenty (20) are being investi gated, and two (2) were withdrawn. Each of these applications demanded detailed examination, and included consideration of the equitable distribution of the water supplies for the several locali ties. Special investigations, covering obstructions to river chan nels, various forms of trades waste pollution, the distribution and extent of the use of the streams for water power generation, and notable cases of diversion of water from its natural channel, have also been made. The Commission has obtained many valuable data necessary to advise it of the condition of the water supplies of the State; a library of over 400 volumes has been collected, and the information therein indexed and studied; numerous maps and blue prints relating to the streams of the State have also been secured and examined. The 3rd section of the act creating the Commission provides: It shall be the duty of the Commission to procure, as speedily as may be, all the data and facts necessary to advise it thoroughly of the situation of the water supply of the State, and adopt such ways and means of utilizing, conserving, purifying and distributing such water supplies in such a way that the various communities of the State shall be fairly and equitably dealt with in such distribution.

Excerpt from Report of the Commissioners on Investigation of Water Supply: Feb; 15, 1883 The sources of supply have been carefully examined, and also the sources of pollution.
