433. Protection of Channels for Domestic Water Supplies. — The observations, sound reasonings, and good judgments that influence municipalities to seek and secure the most wholesome and coolest waters for their domestic uses, compel them also to guard the purity and maintain the equable temperature of the waters as they flow to the point of distribution.
The larger cities, with few exceptions, must lead their waters in artificial conduit
...s, from sources in distant hills, where neither the soils nor atmosphere are tainted by decompositions such as are always in progress in the midst of large concourses of human beings and animals.
Such long water-courses ought to be paved or revetted, or their currents will be impregnated with the minerals over which they flow, and will cut away their banks where the channels wind out and in among the hills. An arch of masonry spanning from wall to wall is then the most sure protection from inflovsdng drainage, the approach of cattle and vermin, the heating action of the summer sun, and the growth of aquatic plants in too luxuriant abundance.
