COMPILATION OF WATER POWER REPORTS 655 



IX. Market for Power 



This will involve as thorough an investigation as the circum- 

 stances warrant of the present and future power market in the 

 surrounding municipalities and district. Possibilities for the local 

 use of power at the site and in the immediate vicinity are also to 

 be covered. With the question of power market, the question 

 of distance of transmission necessary to reach the same requires 

 careful consideration. 



X. Suggestions and Recommendations 



Suggestions, comments or recommendations with reference to 

 the foregoing and the writer's opinion as to the questions at issue 

 should be set out in full. The location of suitable metering sta- 

 tions for the continuous record of the river-flow at vital points 

 should be covered in these recommendations. The question of 

 sources of power other than water, in the vicinity and their pos- 

 sible more economic development is, at times, most important. 

 All recommendations should be set out definitely and concisely. 



XL Appendices 



(1) Plans. (a) A general plan (a section of published map is 

 desirable) showing the location of the power and storage sites 

 with reference to centers of population. (6) A general plan (a 

 section of published map) showing the whole drainage basin above 

 the power site, together with storage reservoirs, (c) Contour 

 plans of the sites of power plants and 1 storage dams, (d) Cross- 

 sections along dam sites, (e) Profiles of reach of river affected and 

 of pipe and canal lines. (/) Any other plans warranted by the 

 nature of the investigation. 



All plans, sections, and profiles, etc., should be suitably num- 

 bered, and should be referred to in the text by these numbers 

 whenever necessary. A complete list of the above plans, giving 

 numbers and description, should be included in the table of 

 contents of the report. 



(2) Photographs. A set of all the views taken to illustrate the 

 different features of the report should be mounted and included. 

 Where these views deal with power-plant and storage-dam layouts, 

 they should be accompanied by a sketch plan showing the point 

 from which each is taken and the direction the camera faced. The 

 films should be numbered, dated and titled, in order that all prints
