Dear Editor,

The Valley Echo of December 5 described the discovery of a huge water leak at 12th Avenue.

When the total system consumption of water is higher than normal, one should suspect a problem. At this time of year, with no lawn irrigation, the volume of water distributed should be approximately equal to the amount sewage received at the disposal beds. A large difference in these volumes should be viewed with suspicion.
