A building has two overhead water tanks, each fitted with a sensor $(S_1, S_2)$ which goes to $0$ when the water level in the tank falls below a set value and remains $1$ otherwise. A common pump is used to raise water from an underground storage tank to these overhead tanks. Of the following circuits, which one will turn on $(P =1)$ the pump only when at least one of the tanks have water level below the set value?
