COMMENTS With -but one exception, winds caused all the damage to the water, sewerage and gas systems. Wave action on Lake Corpus Christi was responsible for the shifting and loss of several yards rip -rap and gravel on,the face of the dam. High water caused no direct damage, but the threat of the approaching hurricane necessitated considerable overtime, especially on the part of the Gas division. Prior to, during, and immediately following the hurricane, various Gas division personnel were on duty in the event of line breaks. The majority of all damages to the municipal facilities have, been repaired by City forces, with overtime making up the major part of the P.L. 875 application. One elevated tank required sway rod tightening, and one truck window was smashed by blowing debris. A motor an a lift station burned out, and a vent was blown away at the main water department office. Considerable roof damage was experienced -all of which was covered by insurance. Attached are pictures showing the wave damage at Wesley Soale Dam. as State Department of Eealthe F / S. tai c Health Service Region VII
