Abstract
The author examines the 'Relation Between Percolation Test and Allowable Loadings' given by Professor Kiker,. The author recalculates the percolation rates from units of minutes per inch of fall to gallons per square foot per day in order that the percolation rates and the allowable sewage loading rates may be compared directly. There appears to be a remarkable reduction in the allowable sewage loading rates compared to the measured percolation rates.
