REPORT OF THE-
WATER BOARD.
REPORT OF THE WATER BOARD.
THE Water Board herewith submit their Seventh Annual Report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1891, with a statement of Receipts and Expenditures, and as Trustees of the Sinking Fund a state- ment of its condition.
At the annual town meeting held in March, Edmund J. Shat- tuck was re-elected Water Commissioner for three years. Mr. T. F. Guy tendered his resignation, owing to removal from town, and at a special town meeting held April 20th, Marcus M. Alden was elected Water Commissioner for one year, to fill out the uil- expired term of T. F. Guy. The Board organized by choice of E. J. Shattuck as Chairman.
We have had during the past year four leaks in the main pipes and two in service pipes, which have been repaired at an expense of $31.80.
The hydrants have received the usual examination, and, so far as known, are in perfect working order.
Three new hydrants have been set on extensions during the year, making a total of one hundred and six hydrants in use. Owing to a change of grade of Washington Street near Railroad Avenue, a longer hydrant was purchased for this position, the one removed remaining on hand-and is available for use for exten- sions next year.
There has been expended the sum of $31.72 for labor in re- locating hydrants on Winter and Foundry Streets, owing to changes in streets.
At the annual town meeting the town appropriated the sum of one hundred dollars for setting out trees, and for the care of the street leading from Winter Street to the Reservoir the sum of
152
eighty-seven and seventy one hundredths dollars has been ex- pended under the direction of the Water Board; the unexpended balance remaining in the treasury.
Service Pipes and Extensions of Mains.
During the year the work in laying service pipes and extensions of mains has been as follows :-
Total number of service pipes laid during year, 40.
Total length of service pipes laid, 726 feet.
Total cost, $295.73.
The extensions of main pipes have been made in accordance with the vote of the town. Guarantys of six per cent on the estimated cost have been signed by responsible parties for the Nichols Street and Foundry Street extensions. The extension on Bullard Street was made to convey water to the new High School building and was without guaranty.

All extensions have been laid by J. T. Langford, under con -. tract, subject to the same conditions regarding quality of materials, responsibility in case of accidents, and the general conduct of the work, as his original contract with the town.
The cost of Foundry Street extension exceeded the estimate by seventy-three dollars and fifty-seven cents, owing to having en- countered a large and unexpected amount of rock excavation.
153
PUMPING STATION.
The only repairs of consequence have been the renewal of fire tile and brick linings to the furnace under the boiler.
The buildings and boiler are in good condition. The pumping engine will require a thorough overhauling during the year. It has been in use for nearly seven years with only slight repairs.
Record of Pumping Engine will be found on page 11.
Summary of record of Pond Guage will be found on page 6.
The lowest level of water in pond since the water works were established was reached Nov. 22d; the water was then sixty-four inches below the curb at the outlet, and at the solicitation of several citizens the Water Board made an examination of the mud-flat on the western boundary of the pond.
We found exposed about four acres with an average depth of seven feet-by use of boat, soundings were made near this bank, and it is estimated that there is about two acres more, then under about one foot of water of this same deposit of an average depth of six feet.
Inquiry was made at the State Board of Health, and we were informed that they did not consider this deposit of mud detrimen- tal to the quality of the water, and that from repeated examina- tions of samples of water taken from the Pond as well as from the Reservoir, they were pleased to say that the source of our water supply was considerably above the average in this State for purity, softness, and general good features for household purposes.

SUMMARY OF RECORD OF POND GAUGE.
January 2, 1891. The water was at the exact level of the curb at the outlet; from that date to February 27 there was a gradual gain, when it reached the highest point of the year, viz. : six inches over the curb. From March Ist there was a gradual decline in the depth of water until April 28th, when it reached the level of the curb.
The lowest level of water since the establishment of the water works was reached November 22d, sixty-four inches below the overflow, leaving a depth of twelve feet and eight inches over the end of suction pipe. December 30th the water was thirty-one inches below the curb.
