M. Clifford, filed with Salt Lake City an application as follows: WWe desire to tap into the water line to Kearns Field with an 8-inch pipe which will be valved through a reduc- ing valve to 40 pounds pressure to service this sprinkler system, No water will be used unless there is a fire in one of the buildings, which would set off some of the sprinklers. We will have connected into this 8-inch fire line, a fire pump of 750 gallons per minute, capable of producing 100 pounds pressure per square inch. Through a series of automatic alarms this pump would be started im- mediately upon the outbreak of a fire, so that the actual consumption of water from the pipe line, in case of a Sire, probably would not exceed a few thousand gallons before the fire pump- would get into operation. This is an emergency measure only and no water would bb used except in case of fire. Also, this can be made a reciprocal arrangement, whereby we could pump water into the line to Kearns Field in case of a fire there and could probably furnish around 1,000 gallons per minute or more." AND WHEREAS, Salt Lake City is willing to grant this re- quest upon such terms and conditions as will save the city harmless. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the request of the Government be granted, subject, however, to the following four ex- ceptions: First. That any arrangements made between the Government and the Kalunite Inc. must be completely terminated both physically and legally at the expense of the Government before the termination of the contract between the City and the Government whether said termination occurs by the provisions of Article I or Article IV of the contract. Second. By granting the request the City is not obligated nor committed to supplying any water in addition to the 4,000,000 gallons per day provided for in Article VII of the contract between �.,,r•�. >..—,.- the Government and the City. Third. By granting this request the City is relieved from the obligations imposed in Article VI of the contract between the City and the Government which provides that the City shall furnish ;potable, safe and suitable water for human consumption. Fourth. By the granting of the Governments request the (City is relieved from any of the penalties provided for in Article XIII of the contract between the City and the Government that may occur due to the connection asked for by the Government.
