The sum of the twelve monthly available quantities will give the total
number of gallons per year applicable to meeting the water demands of
the boroughs of Bronx and Manhattan.
=174. Necessary Storage for New York Supply to Compensate for
Deficiency.=—At the present time the average daily consumption per
inhabitant of those two boroughs is 115 gallons, and if the total
population be taken at 2,200,000, the total daily consumption will
be 2,200,000 × 115 = 253,000,000 gallons. If the latter quantity be
multiplied by 30.5, the latter being taken as the average number of
days in the month throughout the year, the average monthly draft of
water for the two boroughs in question will be 7,716,500,000 gallons.
The subtraction of the latter quantity from the monthly results in the
preceding table will exhibit a deficiency which must be met by storage
or a surplus available for storage. Table XIII exhibits the twelve
monthly differences of that character.
TABLE XIII.
