REPORTS DISTRICT MANAGER-ENGINEER PARALLELING OF EXISTING LINES IN DIABLO AREA Mr. Horstkotte, District Manager-Engineer, stated that there were some large developments planned for the area in Danville near the Athenian School site (Watershed 35 North) and, in order to provide adequate service, it is necessary to parallel existing lines in the Diablo area where existing sewers were taken over by the District several years ago.
