What is Biological Investigations of an Infiltration Area and Experiments with Some Algicides about?

## Introduction To begin with I would like to give an overaU description of the development of the water supplying drinking water for the capital Prague. Formerly the water for Prague was gained from springs or wells only, either from the nearest or from a farther neighbourhood. Since 1914 these resources were no longer sufficient. Since 1918 the supply was taken from underground water from the farther neighbourhood Kfiran3? located about 40 km northeastwards from Prague. The underground water was gained from gravel and sand fluvial deposits, either by pipe-wens of an average depth of 6--20 m or by artesian wells of the depth 60--80 m. Later on since 1927 another source of supply for the capital came into use. The surface water-works was founded in Prague -Podoli. Water was gained from the river Vltava formerly ordy in the amount 300 1/s. Afterwards coagulation started and rapid sand filters were added, and the capacity was increased up to 1500 1/s. Unfortunately, even all these sources were not sufficient and so artificial infiltration was started in the area of Kfiran~, at Sojovice. The oldest experimental part of the artificial infiltration area is in operation since the year 19
