Annual Report
REPORT OF THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT 1957
To His Honor, the Mayor, and the Municipal Council:
Gentlemen:
The details of work accomplished by the Public Works Department for the year 1957 is reported herewith.
Statistical details follow under appropriate headings, however a brief word sketch is included for anyone interested in overall Departmental operations.
At the West Street Pumping Station, a complicated system of sixteen inch discharge mains in the yard and several specially detailed fittings both in the station and the yard were removed and replaced with straight pipe and a mini- mum of standard fittings obtainable at any foundry making water works castings. The specials mentioned were designed to fit the existing piping when the two pumps were installed in 1898 and 1912 and replacement would have required making a new pattern besides having the delay for a casting to be made. The cost would have been prohibitive; hence, it was decided to make the complete piping improvement which resulted in a more direct discharge line with reduced friction loss and eli- mination of special castings and an old check valve in which the disc was complete- ly loose which could have resulted in a complete station shut down and old hydrau- lic gate valves that were useless and an added liability to operations.
A new hydraulic gate valve and check valve in the discharge line outside the station was installed to protect the station and pumps from a back flow of water from the standpipe in case of piping failure within the station. The twelve inch discharge pipe connected to the South Attleboro main will allow the City supply to be pumped either through the Read Street main to Hebronville or directly to the center through West Street and the standpipe.
A new eight inch Venturi tube throat to accurately record the amount of water pumped by either unit was installed at the same time. The tube installed in 1914 was too small for the 4 m. g. d. pump now in operation.
A new gravel wall well, by contract with the D. H. Maher Co. , Woburn, Mass. was constructed at South Avenue and Tiffany Street which it is expected will deliver approximately . 75 m. g. d. A ten inch discharge main was laid from this well across South Avenue to the end of the discharge main running to the Pumping Station from the other four gravel wells in this area. The well house and pumping equipment will be erected and installed in 1958.
The gravel walled well on the easterly side of Bank Street which was never used was cleaned and pump tested for possible use had the long summer drought continued. A new electric pumping unit with controls was installed and an eight inch discharge line was connected to the Bank Street main. However, it was not used and is now operated once each week in anticipation of full use in the summer of 1958.
60.
Annual Report
Report of the Public Works Department continued-
Because of anticipated increase of water demand both domestic and industrial, the expected . 75 m. g. d. will be most welcome.
At Wading River pumping station, a new gravel wall well was built by City forces and placed in operation in June. Without the supply from this well, there is no doubt that the shortage of water available for pumping because of insufficient rainfall would have resulted in a severe loss of working hours in many industries, besides a drastic curtailment by domestic users.
A new sixteen inch suction line was laid from this well to the station yard which replaced a fourteen inch line from the original abandoned well.
This well with the three old ones in the adjacent filter bed enabled the use of the 2. 5 m. g. d. pump which was never in operation because of insufficient supply since it was installed in 1927. This well is expected to deliver well over 2. 0 m. g. d. A rewound 200 horsepower motor with a modern dead front switch- board for operating safety was also installed during the summer.
For better flood control on the Wading River above the original filter field at the ends of the original Blake's Pond Dam steel sheet piling was drivers to form two spillways, one on the original Wading River which will be an emergency spillway providing relief from excessive high water and the more detailed structure on the original head race channel to the old saw and grist mill on Balcom Street.
This latter spillway has stop planks which can be removed as pond elevation rises by flood or can be entirely removed to drain the pond completely. Improve- ment and strenghthening the old earth dam plus the installation of an intake chamber with diversion pipes to the old filter bed and to the new filter bed and well are also a part of this project and will be completed before the summer of 1958.
One of the most worth while water projects was the installation of City mains from Pike Avenue on Wilmarth Street and over Slater Street easterly to the Norton Town line and within four hundred feet of the Rehoboth Town line westerly on said Slater Street.
Fifteen homes are supplied but in addition much land is now very desirable for home building since a water supply and fire protection is available.
The installation work was by the John G. Walsh Contracting Co. , Inc. , this City and was accomplished rapidly and without incident, except for two split pipes replaced. It was a very creditable piece of work by a good organization.
Several plats rapidly being developed for single residence use required many water main extensions, which are detailed elsewhere under proper heading. All installations except Wilmarth and Slater Streets were by City forces. All services from main to buildings are placed by Water Department employees.
61.
Annual Report
Report of the Public Works Department continued-
Several fire services were installed by City employees, some for new con- struction and others in old buildings remodeled as shown by detailed listing.
On Lindsey Street between Pleasant Street and the bottom of the southerly railroad overpass slope the old six inch water main was replaced with an eight inch pipe. This now completes the eight inch supply main on this street from Bungay and Mansfield Road in North Attleboro to Pleasant Street and will be an emergency supply main from the Wading River pumping station in case of failure of the main running down North Main Street.
Repairs to the gate house for the standpipe on Ide's Hill were extensive be- cause of concrete deterioration and vandalism.
Many streets were surface treated with asphalt in an attempt to maintain a surface that is inadequate for modern traffic. A program of resurfacing with a more durable type has been started with a "mixed in place" application of fine. gravel and asphalt mixed and shaped with our power grader.
Park Street, South Main Street and County Street were so treated with appa- rent good results.
New streets in the length of 1 54 miles were adopted by the Municipal Council and will be constructed during 1958 if funds are voted for necessary surface water drainage systems.
Many streets were resurfaced because of water, sewer or drain installation particularly in the County Heights Arca.
An asphalt sidewalk was constructed on Brown Street between Washington Street and Robinson Avenue adjacent to the Junior High School.
Five hundred feet of extruded asphalt curbing was laid from Robinson Ave- nue easterly with this construction to prevent gutter wash on this hill.
Sanitary sewer extensions to serve new homes on several streets are de- tailed.
Surface drainage lines and catch basins were installed at many locations being particularly required by home development and street acceptances.
A major installation was the drain from Knight Avenue to the Thompson Chemical Company to conduct trade waste to the Ten Mile River.
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that this year we replace several pieces of highway equip - ment.
62.
Annual Report
Report of the Public Works Department continued-
Under new equipment this year, consideration should be given to the purchase of two 2 yd. Dump trucks for routine small jobs. Also a catch basin cleaner, pneu- matic, truck mounted, for removing gravel, sand and stones from dry basins in gravel sidewalk areas.
Six small sidewalk snow plowing tractors should be purchased as the three sidewalk plows which we now have are inadequate to cover the mileage included . (about 70. ) It is also requested that a snow loader be purchased to take care of the additional work required of this department by merchants in the center on both sides of the railroad.
We would appreciate consideration of purchase of two-1/2 ton pick-up trucks for the meter readers in the Water Department. The Mueller Tapping machine which is twentyyears old should be replaced with a new power driven unit.
Under equipment replacement it is requested that a used 3/4 ton chassis for small crane be purchased, also a used 2 ton chassis for big crane. A pick up truck for the Highway foreman should be purchased to replace the old truck now being used.
Also a 300 smp. electric welding unit for the garage should be purchased. A 1/2 ton pick-up truck for routine operation for the Water Department to replace a Studebaker pick-up should be purchased.
My sincere thanks is extended to all City Department Heads, particularly Chief Marron of the Police Department and Chief Packard of the Fire Department , Mayor Brennan, and all members of the Municipal Council, all citizens who of- ferred timely suggestions, and especially to all personnel of this department for their co-operation and loyalty.
Respectfully submitted,
Russell F. Tennant Superintendent of Public Works
