Abstract

Knoxville, Tennessee, placed its new water works plant in operation September 1, 1927. It comprises an intake, pumping station and filter plant and coagulation basins. In addition to the plant, two concrete reservoirs were added to the system, having capacities of 1 and 10 million gallons respectively. Large feeder mains were also laid to strengthen the distribution system. The source of water supply is the Tennessee River and the intake is located about 3 miles down-stream from the junction of the French Broad and Holston Rivers.
