The Filtration Works of the East Jersey Water Company, At Little Falls, New Jersey
The East Jersey Water Company, in 1897, commenced the development of a new source of supply from the Passaic River, at Little Falls, N. J., about 5 miles above Paterson. The pumping station, which was completed in the autumn of 1899, has a capacity of 75 000 000 galls. daily. It is a combination water- and steam-power plant, the pumps being placed between the turbines and steam engines, and connected so that either water or steam power, or both, may be used.
At present, an average daily quantity of about 50 000 000 galls. of water is pumped at this station. Approximately, this quantity has been pumped regularly since November, 1899, and supplied to cities having an aggregate population of about 450 000.
