SEWER MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS


Inspection, flushing and cleaning of main sewer lines were carried on as time and money would permit. The system now comprises 194 miles of sewer lines.


In 1960 the purchase of the Flexible Power Sewer Cleaning Equipment was a great help in clearing dirt and roots from the system. During the year 537 stoppages were reported.


During the year the personnel made 330 day calls; 177 night calls and 30 calls on Sundays and holidays.


The total number of stoppages was 537; the most common cause was the presence of roots in particular sewers of which there 243 cases.


The work of cleaning, flushing and inspecting manholes was carried on from January to April and resumed in December.


Particular sewer connections were relaid in five locations on Copeland Street and one each on Hancock Street, Manet Avenue, Norton Road and Watkins Street.


Main sewers were relaid on Cleaves Street, Elliot Avenue and Hobart Street.
