Commissioners
Repair of the Jeweil County court-
house boiler was discussed Monday
when the Jewell County Commission-
ers met. A representative of American
Boiler and Mechanical, explained when
both boilers are running and areshut
down at the same time, there is an "in
rush" of pressure on the switches, which
is more then the switches can handle.
The outside meter does not respond
fast enough and this causes damage to
the regulator. It was decided ask Kan-
sas Gas Servic6 if the company can
control the pressure. If rtot two regula-
tors will need to be replaced at an
estimated cost of $950.
Carla Waugh, county clerk, re-
viewed the agreement for long dis-
tance service and a proposed rate de-
crease of .05 cents per minute. It was
