. Prince George, B.C. required 15 mgd additional municipal water supply. A cost comparison led to the selection of the Nechako Aquifer ground-water supply instead of the Nechako River surface-water supply. A Fehlmann horizontal collector, consisting of a 16-inch diameter reinforced concrete caisson, 100 feet deep, with 1788 feet of 8-inch diameter polystyrene screen, projecting spoke-like at the bottom of the caisson, was installed. On test, the collector produced 15.3 mgd of clean, excellent quality water, with 6.7 feet drawdown under equilibrium conditions.
