A quick decision was made to reopen the session after lunch in the old waterworks that had been used till then as a provisional home.
There is no attempt to contextualize the narrative by reference to the literature on environmental history or even the more arcane area of waterworks history.
Waterworks were presented as symbols of civic progress, technological achievement, and the municipality's concern over its citizens.
During 8 days within the 2-week outbreak, the water treatment plant in the waterworks exhibited major deficiencies regarding the application of chlorine and/or ozone.

As well as projecting an image of the city to outsiders, the commemoration of waterworks was also designed to convey certain ideas to the domestic audience.
In terms of infrastructure, the collectivities have a number of possible areas of responsibility, including waterworks, energy, transportation, roads, communication, local markets, sporting and cultural events, and tourism.
There is ample evidence that waterworks ceremonies provided the local press with an opportunity to participate in the veneration of the extreme remoteness and wildness of the reservoirs' settings.
