QUINCY, December 31, 1894.
To Ilis Honor the Mayor and the City Council, of the City of Quincy :
GENTLEMEN :- The Board of Water Commissioners respect- fully submit the following report :-
The principal work of the year has been on extension of street mains. In accordance with the expressed desire of the City Council no pipe laying has been done by contract. If the cost of doing the work has been somewhat increased, the Board are satisfied that it has been carefully and well done. Of the appropriation available for the extension of mains, $92,856.33, we have an unexpended balance of $1,322.06. A portion of this will be required for the payment of pipe ordered but not delivered. In many cases, the pipes laid this year con- nect with and intersect the smaller pipes of the original works, thus doing away with numerous 'dead ends' and serving as feeders to reinforce the smaller pipes. As a rule the Board have not used pipe of less than 6 in. diameter on new extensions. During the year 11 36 miles of pipe have been laid, and 92 hydrants added. Fire protection often demands the concentra- tion of large quantities of water at one point in addition to the maximum domestic consumption. Therefore in planning extensions care' has been taken to have the main arteries suit- ably located and large enough for the purpose.
The Board advise the extension of the 16 inch main on Common street to a proposed stand-pipe to be erected on Forbes
176
hill in Ward 5. The land has already been acquired by the City. It is important that this work be completed at once, in order to have a safe margin of water at hand for fire supply in case of unusual accidents either to the pumping machinery or the street main leading to the present stand-pipe. The build- ing of this stand-pipe will obviate the necessity of continuous pumping, especially during the night time, and will be of great value to the distribution service, the consumption of water having increased to such an extent that at times during the summer months it is impossible to maintain a high level of the water in the present stand-pipe, in case of a large demand for fire purposes.
The Board are of the opinion that the appropriation, if any is made for extensions the ensuing year, should be small and for minor extensions only. With the increase of popula- tion the question of supply becomes of first importance. We have absolutely reached a point where it is necessary to provide additional storage capacity.
Considerable repairs have been made on the well and the roof of the Pumping Station and the same are now in good order_ A drive way and other improvements have been made to the pipe yard in the rear of the works. The cost of the above as well as the painting of the stand-pipe and about $1,350, expended for excavating mud from the Reservoir, has been charged to the sum appropriated for £ maintenance. The conveniences for storing coal are insufficient for the purpose and we recommend an appropriation for new coal sheds.
The reduction made in the schedule of water rates went into effect on July 1, 1894. The total amount received for the sale of water for the year ending Dec. 31, 1894 is $40,943.05. We estimate the probable gross receipts from the source for the year 1895 to be $41,000, and the amount required for mainte- nance account at $14,000.
The Joint Committee, consisting of the Mayor and Water Board, have devoted considerable attention to the subject of the future supply of water and collected much information bearing upon the same, which together with general plans showing the
177
water shed of the present reservoir, a proposed new storage basin and a scheme for using the water of Blue Hill River, has been submitted to the State Board of Health for its considera- tion. It is of great importance that the investigations be con- tinued and a scheme perfected in season to provide an additional amount of water for use during the summer of 1896.

Report of Superinten= dent.
To the Board of Water Commissioners of Quincy :
GENTLEMEN :- The report of the Superintendent of the de- tails of work done by the direction of the Board for the year ending December 31, 1894, is respectfully presented.
The average daily consumption of water was 797,999 gal- lons, an increase of 68,509 gallons more than the average daily use of 1893. The total consumption for the year was 291,269,- 817 gallons. The maximum quantity used was 1,495,998 gallons July 20, and the minimum quantity was 582,056 gallons Feb- ruary 4.
The water in the reservoir was drawn 9.38 feet below the overflow, 2.20 feet below the lowest point in 1893. From this time there was an increase till December 31, when the water was .99 feet below the overflow. The diagram, made by Mr. E. W. Branch, C. E., shows the elevation of the water for each month.
The daily average consumption in gallons is given by months for 1893 and 1894.

The chemical and microscopical examination of the water in the reservoir has been continued through the year, under the direction of the State Board of Health and the report of these examinations furnished by Mr. F. P. Stearns, the Chief Engineer of the Board, is herewith presented.
A contract was made February 1, with the MeNeal Pipe & Foundry Co., of Burlington, N. J., to deliver 43,516 feet of pipe with the required special castings by May 15th., all of which were delivered at the pipe yard in the rear of the pump- ing station before the specified time. An order was given the Warren Foundry & Machine Co., Oct. 30th. for about 7,140 feet of pipe ; a further order for 13,000 feet was given to the McNeal Pipe & Foundry Co., Nov. 3rd.
By vote of the Board, the work of laying pipe was begun March 14th, and was continued through the season as long as the ground was not frozen. All the work was done by men, employed by the Department, by the day.
The amount of pipe laid is 62,712.5 ft., 1,686 ft. of which was laid to replace that amount of 2 inch pipe which was taken up.
182
The pipe system was extended 11.54 miles, the location and de- tails of which are shown in the following table.
All the pipe ordered has been laid except about 700 feet on Robertson street, to complete the 8 inch line from Willard street through Robertson, Adams and Beale streets to connect with Wollaston, which was not finished owing to the cold wea- ther. Also the 10 inch on Sea street, which is now being de- livered along the line and about 600 feet of 6 inch in the pipe yard.
The 6 inch pipe over the railroad bridge on Adams street was taken out at the time the new bridge was built and after- wards re-laid ; a new box was built around the pipe over the bridge.
In connection with the above work 128 gates and 92 hydrants were set. The hydrant formerly on the southerly side of Copeland street corner of Common was moved to the wester- ly side of Copeland, and the one on Cross street pipe near the corner of Common was relocated on the easterly side of Common Street opposite Cross street and connected direct with the sixteen inch pipe through Common street. The number of applications received for service connections was 364. Number connected 354, 2 were cancelled or withdrawn and 8 not put in.
Electric lights have been put in the pumping station. The outside wood work of the building has been painted, a part of the brick wall of well No. 1 was taken down and relaid, the roof repaired and the wood finish painted. The pumps and boilers have had the usual care and are now in good condition. The furnaces of the boilers and the grates will require some re- pairs before another summer. When this is done, new shaking grates of modern style can be introduced with a small increase of cost over the present pattern in use, and an automatic steam damper will also be of value in maintaining a uniform steam pressure on the boilers as the pump has to be run in the sum- mer and also add to the efficacy of the boilers. With these exceptions, no unusual repairs are anticipated for the next year The walls of the boiler room have been whitened by the regular
183
employees at the station. A driveway was made from the pipe yard to the southerly end of Penn street. The stand pipe was thoroughly cleaned and painted inside and outside. The fence around the stand pipe was also painted.
Under the direction of the Board, the loam and soil were removed from part of the inlet end of the reservoir and the material removed was deposited so as to fill a part of the land formerly flowed only a few weeks when the reservoir is full. The cost of this work was $1,349.36, and the same was charged to the appropriation for maintenance.
Number of meters in use 109.
