The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution has been
asked by the New York City Board of Water Supply to
study and review recent observations on the distribution
of fresh and salt water in the Estuary of the Delaware
River. The objective was to determine the relationship
between river flow and the salinity in various parts or
the estuary so that the effects of the proposed diversion
of Delaware River water on the distribution of
salinity could be evaluated.

Since the preparation of my report on the distribution
of salinity in the estuary of the Delaware
River (N.Y.C. Exhibit 40) a new formula governing
the releases of water from storage during periods of
low flow has been proposed.
