Subsoil stabilization saves 40-year-old reservoir
Concrete reservoir, nearly 40 yr old, at Easton, Pa, designed for 1, 000,000 gal, had capacity of only 70% due to seepage through sidewall cracks; 196 holes, 2 in. in diam, drilled through walls served as means of filling void spaces and injecting solidifying chemicals; final step of rehabilitation was "shot-creting" 3 in. concrete covering.
